During my 1 week whole house sprucing up before we put our house on the market I repainted all the cabinets in my home and added hardware! When we move into that house there weren't any knobs or drawer pulls. It was also outdated oak. So drab and no personality at all! The picture below says it all. It looked dingy and I was ready to freshen it up not only for myself but to help sell it!
After all the cabinets were painted and put back together, my dad came over and helped me install the new hardware perfectly. Since I was using farm house cup pulls I wanted to make sure they were level. So how do you perfectly match up every knob and pull? It was amazingly simple because we had the perfect tool!
Check out ALIGNright! It is a tool just for installing hardware perfectly! *Just letting you know I am not sponsored by ALIGNright! It was just really that amazing! You can find it HERE. *affiliate link*
It is a plastic template that helps you mark the spots for knobs and pulls. That way you get it right every time.
We took it out of the package and grabbed the knob template which looks like this.
Place it on your cabinets and take your pin and mark it. Then take your drill will a small drill bit and drill through your cabinet door. Then screw in your knob! Easy as that!

I needed this tool back in May when I added knobs to my children's vanity. This is such a cool tool! I am still in awe over your kitchen makeover....it is so beautiful, the new owners will appreciate the makeover!
Those are the same drawer pulls I've wanted to add to our kitchen for the last three years. Thankfully, I haven't done it yet because NOW I would know to use that tool. It looks beautiful!
