Hi everyone! It's Rubyellen from Cakies again, and this time I'm sharing the little switch-a-roo I did with my dresser knobs. Just a fast and simple way to give your dresser a little extra oomph. I have had this Ikea dresser for over 12 years now. And while it is still in great condition, a lot of the knobs slide off all the time when I pull the drawers open (this is even after using Gorilla Glue to fix it time and time again). Thus, it was time to give it a little change. 
I wanted to do something quirky and make all the knobs completely different, so I headed to the first place that I knew had lots of different knob options… Anthropologie! My husband and I went together, and this is what our knob process looked like: I selected one of every knob they had that would fit and gave it to him, he paired the ones he liked together, then he cut it down to 6 pairs (12 knobs total), and I looked at his selections (and the ones he didn't pick). I switched out one pair he chose for another pair I liked better, and then we were done. Tada!!! It is his room too, and his clothes are in half the drawers (okay, only 2 of them), so it was teamwork to pick out our new knobs. He gravitates to bolder colors and I gravitate to pastels, so the ones I switched out were two bold ones for two lighter colored ones.
Thanks for letting me share our knob switch-a-roo with you! The knob changed inspired me to do a major purge in our bedroom, and it's been clean for two weeks straight now. Nothing like a little quick project to motivate you to get a space tidy. Don't you agree?! xoxo, Rubyellen
There is a fab little website www.abodent.com which sell the same or very similar hardware knobs.
Love this idea, actually have done this around our home ourselves, including on some doors and closets!

Frankly speaking doing all the knobs with different elements will make it a new décor, but gives a clumsy look. Choosing similar color/pattern for each row would look better.
Lovely Idea!!!
I like Your Blog 😉

You make everything you touch fun and beautiful! Love the knob choices!
World Market has great knobs for cheap! Some of the same ones as anthro. I got 6 for $12 for a dresser project this summer.
I’ve always wanted to do this, but I still don’t even own a dresser! 🙁
What a lovely and simple idea to spruce up an old piece of furniture…i may have to steal it one day haha

Quirky and fun. Hobby Lobby has awesome knows, very reasonable too:-)
I did this for my daughter’s dresser/changing table after seeing it on Rockstar Diaries. You can see my post here: http://wordsofwilliams.com/nursery-ideas/
When we did our kitchen remodel 6 years ago we went with white cabinets and glass knobs and pulls. I had both blue and green walls in the kitchen and wanted both blue and green glass knobs. Hubby thought I was nuts (“nobody does that.) I insisted and it looks great. I alternated colors and it just pulls your eye around the area. One of these days I’m going to get around to replacing the plain wood knobs on our light oak china cabinet/hutch with these, too, so the whole room will be like that.
Now it’s much cuter, I was thinking about doing the same with mine.
Very quirky…such a cool idea!
