Finding Cabinet Hardware to Fit
Three years ago while I was working for a furniture manufacturer I had to opportunity to purchase a 2 piece china hutch.  I had never owned a new piece of furniture in my life and since I was able to get a discount, I took advantage of it.  It's a beautiful vanilla colored wood, with dual door, dual drawer cabinet, and a dual door, mirrored, 2 glass shelved hutch.  There is only one thing wrong with it; it’s missing a handle to the cabinet door in the right side.  Finding cabinet hardware to fit can be a challenge; I remember how hard it was to find a knob for my antique bookcase that my grandfather gave me.  It has wooden knobs and they are a reddish colored wood.  I believe it is made of some type of cherry.  Since the bookcase was made in the early 40's it might be impossible to find an original knob, but I was able to purchase something similar.  Now all I have to do is find the matching stain.
