In an effort to spice this stank burger up, I've been working on a few DIY projects around the house. The first of which I talked about in a previous post regarding my crappy couch to shabby chic makeover. It took very little time, and just a wee bit o' casheesh on my part. Also on the DIY list was to change the boring knobs on my blue dresser. Here is what the original knobs looked like:
Kinda plain jane, nothing awesome about them. They weren't ugly by any stretch, but they didn't add any flavor to the dresser. During one of my trips to World Market I saw they stock a variety of different knobs -- shapes, sizes, colors, etc. I decided to do a little switch up with the dresser in my bedroom. Here are some of the knobs I picked out:
The picture doesn't show all of them -- there are 12 total -- but you get the idea of what type of knobs I was looking for. They aren't that expensive either! I got a couple sets for $3.99 a set, then a few of the more colorful knobs were $3.99 to $4.99 each. I think for the whole 12-knob transformation I spent about $40. Here's the dresser now:
Not the greatest picture ever, but you get the idea. It looks pretty sweet in person. I find that, like The Dude's rug, it completes the room :)
