Hard time picking kitchen cabinet handles

I need to pick out handles for the kitchen cabinets. The guy sent me pictures to look at but there is nothing there that screams "pick me." Decided to look online on different sites and see if there is anything that may appeal to me that I can take a screenshot of and send to him to see if he has anything like that. Not finding anything. It's a bit frustrating. Would have been so much easier probably if I could go to a store and look at things in person. Maybe then I'd be able to make up my mind and finally decide what I want.

With handles that is just the thing if you can reach out and grab them easily then you have a better change to choose if you see them in person,

Sometimes what looks good in a picture doesn't in real life or vice versa.

That's the tough part. Sometimes pictures don't do something justice. If it's a handle, I need to touch iit.

@kaylachan If clothes, I like to feel, to touch, and to try on. And I want to see things in person before buying. Enough times what seems to look good in a picture doesn't look good in real life. And sometimes it's the other way around.

I hate getting things based off of pictures.

While handles don’t seem like a big deal, I get how that can affect the aesthetic of the kitchen.

Seems that handles or knobs can enhance the look of the kitchen or ruin its appearance too.

Discard the two you dislike more, choose two that you like, ask your husband to decide which of the two.

@lovebuglena I hope they are not going to mess up also with the handles.

When the guys came to install the kitchen they brought a few handles with them to choose from. Found one I liked and will go with those. However, they have to get them in a bigger size.

Our handles are square-ish with sharp corners. I don't like them much but it's what was here when we moved in.

I am not a huge fan of sharp corners.

Maybe hubby can take you to a DIY store to look at handles. I hope you will enjoy your Labor Day even though hubby has to work. Any plans?

We had no plans. We were home Sunday. Hubby went to get a car wash and went to the supermarket for a few things. Monday we went to his parents' house for dinner as it was their 42nd wedding anniversary.

Sometimes, having too many choices can be a bad thing. I can also be indecisive when nothing really interests me, but once I found something that I like, then I wouldn't want to look at anything else. I know me, chances are, I'll change my mind again and a whole new round of searching and looking will happen.

Too many choices is never a good thing. Makes it that much harder to make up your mind.
