Well, I was inspired by this photo on Emily A. Clark's blog:
Doesn't the Ikea Malm dresser look all snazzy now with the chrome drawer pulls!?! It looks very contemporary and expensive! I LOVE it!! Since my drawers are white I was thinking of using dark bronze pulls for contrast. I don't think silver would show up as well.
I have yet to find just the right hardware and at the right price on my internet search. Here are some "maybes":
This one is a rustic ring pull and costs $3.75 a piece. That would be $45 for all 12 pulls.
These are from Cost Plus World Market and are only $8 for a set of 4. I'm not sure that they are the look I want but it would only be $24 for the project.
Or I could go a different route and use pulls like these. They are from Hobby Lobby and are $4 each....$48 for the project.
I also checked out Anthropologie online and they have some great knobs but they are a little too expensive for my budget and not exactly what I was looking for. I think I will have to get out and about to to find what I want. Perhaps I could find some at a antique shop or salvage yard. I want cheap and unique...anyone have some suggestions?
depending on the look you are going for - do they all have to match? i would say best bet for unique would be antique type stores but maybe get a mix of coordinating but different ones.
ReplyDeletedunno - just a thought.
I was going to mention Anthropologie as well until I saw the mention at the bottom of the page. Yes, they are a bit on the expensive side, but oh how I adore almost every one of them!
ReplyDeleteIs there anything that you already own that has the perfect pulls for what you want? Or, could you buy the inexpensive ones at Lowe's/Home Depot/? Ace Hardware and sand then spray paint them the dark bronzed color you prefer. A Classy Flea in Marietta has some pulls/antique-y looking ones and I was recently in the Cost Plus World Market store and loved so many of their pulls! Good Luck on your search!
ReplyDeleteOooh, some cute pulls will make that room. Now, I want to find cute knobs for my bedroom.
ReplyDeleteLee Valley Hardware has a great selection of knobs and pulls.
