New hardware

Pretty soon I'll be starting on Isaac's nursery and since I am going to be repainting the dresser (vintage Thomasville) I wanted to get some new hardware for it as well. I decided to see if I could find some vintage hardware on ebay, however since I need 13 drawer pulls it was hard to come by. I really recommend checking it out though if you only need a few pieces for a smaller piece of furniture, there was some really great stuff!

In the end I decided to go with these art deco pulls, still from ebay but they are new not vintage.



I got 25 knobs for under $25.....you can't beat that! Since I only need 13 for the dresser I have plenty left over for some side projects.

Here they are on the dresser, which hasn't been painted yet-I just wanted to see how they looked.



Love it!!


And while I'm at it, here is what his nursery looks like since I've never posted photos. Beware....it's become a storage room since Phin moved out of it!

 (the dresser has feet that I need to put back on it so it won't look so low when it's all done)



Yikes........I have my work cut out for me!

The BEST resource for ribbon and trims

  The possibilities are endless for using ribbon and other fabric trims.

On curtains of course.

(Also notice the pom pom trim on the bed quilt and pillowcases...great way to liven up store bought bedding! Grosgrain trim on the lampshade as well.)










Jazz up a lampshade.






Love using it on pillows!







How about on an ottoman?






Or a DIY greek key Roman shade




And don't forget your upholstery!!
