Modern Kitchen Hardware Ideas 2024

I love to look at fancy, modern kitchen hardware ideas and options.

It’s always the small details which can really bring a room together.

The right kitchen hardware is a great way to update your space.

Like jewelry for a room, the perfect pulls, knobs and even hinges can enhance the overall design of your kitchen.

The best part, changing up your hardware in the kitchen is relatively easy enough to do on your own.

Similar to updating your throw pillows, these small, easy zhushes pack a large style punch.

Today I’m sharing some favorites I’ve used through the years…

Like these Canfield pulls in brass as seen above and below in my kitchen, love these SO much!

Work From Home Office Ideas

This post on my home office first ran several years ago.
 
Since so many people are currently looking for home office ideas I recently went back and significantly updated it.

Home Office Ideas

 

I hope you love these home office ideas from my own set up.

Due to the current situation, home offices are obviously becoming increasingly popular.

However, even before this past March, it seems more and more people are working from home these days.

No matter the size of the space, your home office should be functional and make you feel inspired.

For me that means a lot of natural light, pretty art, and not too much clutter. 

Of course, having the essentials, like a calendar, loads of pens, paper clips and my files all within easy reach is pretty key too.

From time to time I get emails asking where various accessories or pieces in my home office are from.

I’m always pretty flattered and I can also relate, as most of the finds were from various office set ups that I’ve seen online throughout the years!

If I see a certain vignette or desk top that inspires me for whatever reason, I’ll pin it to this board, and then hone in on the details until I can find something similar on my own.

So, if my home office resonates with you, I’ve listed the exact items where they’re still available and I’ve also found some great new accessories which I’ve rounded up below.

As for the walls, it’s a lightened (white paint was added) version of Benjamin Moore’s Lavender Icewhich you can read more about here,  and the shade fabric is from Quadrille.

Benjamin Moore Lavender Ice Paint Review With Real Life Examples

Back today with another wall paint color feature – Benjamin Moore Lavender Ice.

I’ve been getting a lot of positive feedback on these paint color posts.

So glad you are finding these helpful.

And, I’m more than happy to do more!

Which brings me to today’s color: Benjamin Moore Lavender Ice.

The first time using this pale purple paint.

Just like so many other paint color choices we’ve made, I first used this pretty pale purple paint color (can never resist a little alliteration!) back in our former home in New York.

You can see it in the image of my old home office above.

I’ve always considered pale lavender to be such a chic color. Something a little different without being too outrageous.

We tweaked this paint color, by halfing it with white paint.

This created a more subtle version of the original.
