When creating a big girl room for our daughter, I picked up a dresser and vanity from craigslist. I painted them bright white, the existing hardware was not the whimsical, fun look I was looking for. I searched high and low for fun pulls, but eek, I was not about to pay $9/knob for hand painted flower knobs! I needed 13 total.
This idea came to me, and it is so easy
Items needed:
Mod Podge
Fabric of choice, I chose a small pattern that I didn't have to worry about centering (1/8 yard was enough for 13)
Rubber band
Unfinished wood hardware (I found mine at Walmart, a pack of 8 was a little over $8.00)
Coat your knob with Mod Podge
Take your fabric, I cut mine 3.5" square, and place on the knob.
Wrap the fabric around the knob, smoothing as you go, and gathering around the base.
Coat with Mod Podge again, over top the fabric
Secure with the fabric with a rubber band around the base. It will get sticky with the Mod Podge. After it dries you can cut or remove the rubber band. Trim the fabric at the base of the knob. I coated my knobs a second time to make them shiny and durable.
Attach the knob, and you're finished!
