With so many different styles of cabinet pulls, there are tons of different uses for them outside of your household cabinetry! When you're in the mood for some DIY crafting, pulls can be used to create some very unique and convenient items that you'll use regularly. Here are five creative ideas for cabinet pulls and cabinet hardware that will add personality to any room in your home.
Creative Uses for Cabinet Pulls and Cabinet Hardware
There are many different creative uses for cabinet knobs and pulls. For example, you can use cabinet knobs to upgrade your closet storage. Underneath your closet shelving, install long bar pulls. These can hold several hangers at a time, which can dramatically create more space in your closet. Depending on the type of bar pulls you choose, your closet will get a modern facelift and a trendy antiqued look.
Another great idea is to create a serving tray. Everyone loves an aesthetic serving tray for drinks and charcuterie at dinner parties. Find a nice piece of solid wood for this project. This can be a raw piece that you'll sand and finish on your own, or an old serving tray in need of an upgrade. Then, find some pulls that complement the color of the wood. Choose a finish like silver, bronze, or even black. Not only are these trays great for your home, but they make for excellent gifts!
There are countless uses for pulls throughout your home that, with just a bit of inspiration, can really change the look of your décor. Many have used cabinet knobs for a customized look for storage jars, wine stoppers, curtain hangers, jewelry organizers, and so much more. Consider using antique door hardware for these DIY projects.
Alternative Uses for Cabinet Hardware
There are other useful ways you can use cabinet hardware too. For example, instead of keeping a bowl of miscellaneous things at your front door, you can use pulls to hang your keys on. This can be as simple as a few unfinished wood drawer pulls painted to match your entryway colors. Install them directly onto your walls or create an entire wood-backed piece with T-bar pulls and bar pulls to not only hold keys, but also keep mail, bills, and more organized.
You can also choose to ditch the unsightly over-the-door towel hanger and install two or three cabinet pulls in your bathroom to hang up your towels. Choose hardware that matches your other bathroom hardware for a streamlined, clean look!
