We just freshened up the kitchen as well. I was into Lowes $250-300 all said and done for the hardware. ~22 cabinet knobs, ~16 pull handles. Couldn't find the style we wanted in bulk packs. But then of course we had to do all the hinges to match, pantry door knob and hinges, etc. and the price keeps going up...

Why is it the faucet that matches the new handles best is also the most expensive of the lot?
