Themed Knobs
For my last couple of posts, I’ve focused on some bigger elements and additions to your home, such as jewelry armoires and loft beds. This time, I wanted to take it down a notch, and discuss something that can really make a huge difference in your décor and organization, without costing a lot of money, time, or space. I’m referring to cabinet knobs.
Cabinet knobs are like jewelry for your cabinets. Imagine walking into somebody’s kitchen and noticing that all their cabinet knobs are shaped like horses. Or cats. Or leaves. Or any other theme. If nothing else, the experience will be memorable. That’s why this post isn’t just about any old knobs; rather it’s about themed knobs.
I found a website where they sell knobs according to any theme you want, and they are all in a really nice pewter finish. They’re called Anne at Home Hardware knobs, and I’ve already ordered a bunch for my own home. I know, I sound like a salesman or something, and I usually try not to plug for any specific company, but I just really like these knobs, what can I say?
I like to fish, so I got all different kinds of fish knobs for my study. My wife likes her nature walks, so she got leaves and nuts for the kitchen. We got our kids cute little animal knobs for their bedrooms. They actually haven’t even arrived yet, but we are all very excited for the change. So far, our knobs and handles are the same as they always have been, which is basically whatever the furniture originally cae with. And since getting whole new furniture is not within our budget, we felt that new knobs might do the trick. I’ve seen it done in friend’s homes, and it really does work.
So that’s my little tip for you this time around. Try replacing your knobs, and try going with themes. It’s way more fun that your run of the mill brass knob, and it’ll keep your whole home unique and fresh.
