I am slightly obsessed with drawer knobs, pulls and hardware. Whenever I go to Anthropologie I normally walk directly to the bin of hardware. Hardware can change the look of a piece. A mainstream chest can go from something that you see everywhere to looking like a vintage collected piece. I looked around my house and noticed a trend, almost every piece I own has new hardware added to it. See what I mean…
I found that little white cabinet in the bathroom storage section at Home Goods, I think it was maybe $70. I took off the white knob that matched the white wood and replaced it with a new gold drawer pull. I also took out the basket that came with it on the bottom and replace it with an antique picnic basket.
We have a tiny kitchen and I needed more storage. This piece works great for that. (You can read about my kitchen HERE).
This dresser I added to our entry for again, more storage. I found it for sale on an online used furniture site. I recently just replaced the knobs on this piece.
I mixed them up for an eclectic feel. It feels more eclectic rather than too farmhouse country.
Our piano has had a couple of different knobs on it. When I painted it (you can read about that HERE) I replaced them with a knob that matches our living room rug, a little pop of pink.
We recently made over my sons nursery (you can read about that HERE) and I found that dresser on Wayfair for a really good price. With a few little changes it became a changing table and looks a little more unique and more expensive than it did originally.
Unique hardware can be expensive to replace every knob on a piece of furniture. On my son’s changing table I switched out just the top two knobs and left what came with it on the rest of the piece. Great way to save money.
These are some of my favorite knobs. I think they are pretty timeless to and would add so much charm to a piece of furniture. Bunny Black and White Knob Gold Pull
