Check out these fancy head pins! They were a little over 3mm wide at the tip. And really hard to photograph.
And also awkwardly shaped. Some were round, some were oval. Not sure what's going on here, but I think they look just like custom pulls. I am still debating whether or not to try and make them darker or bronzier. I am thinking of leaving them as they are, mainly because I'm going to have to make the kitchen faucet out of FIMO and I'm pretty sure I have a steel colored metallic clay, but not bronze.
The varnish is dry, the holes are drilled and I was too excited to glue the pulls in place, so I will do that tomorrow, along with further work on the microwave and maybe the fridge. But here, have a few preview pictures!
I was liking the look until I realized I had achieved 'golden oak.' I hate golden oak. Now I'm annoyed, but they look so realistic anyway I'll probably keep it. Typical modern builders grade cabinets, right? I am still divided about adding pulls to the faux drawer right below the sink. I can always add them later.
Now if you have been following along and thinking, 'wow, those top doors are pretty high,' I thought of it too, and found a solution for that! A mini step-ladder! It actually folds up, too.
