Choosing Hardware

So, I'm trying to sort out my whole kitchen hardware situation. Have you ever thought about what hardware you would use, if you could choose? Right when most people are getting rid of their brass knobs, I'm wanting to buy them for my house! I bought some of these guys off craigslist. Have you ever used craigslist? I got some great finds off craigslist for our new house! Lighting, Hardware, Construction Materials, Sinks, Faucets and more!!! Who doesn't like a great deal?

Since we are building (essentially) from scratch, I get to pick out hardware for all the vanities & cabinets throughout the house. So I can try out several looks! But what finish? Polished Nickel? Oil Rubbed Bronze? Antique Brass? So many choices. Here are some from pinterest that I like. Do you think this is pretty, or is it just me?

Hmm...This is pretty too. I wonder what it's like to open those upper cabinets? Looks like a bit of a pain.

But wouldn't this look great on my reclaimed wood island? I found some super old drawer pulls at a local junk shop that will look kind of like this.

And some fat wooden knobs like this in my laundry room will be pretty (and super-duper-cheap!)
