Kitchens and cabinets are just plain hard to spruce up without spending a million dollars. You can paint the walls a new color. You can replace the ancient oven that has been the bane of your existence since you moved in. Or, you can do something much easier that doesn’t require a ton of work or money. It’s as simple as replacing your hardware. Check out these 20 masterful hardware pieces that are ready to give your cabinets a facelift.
