Drawer Pulls - They Are the Perfect Way to Complete the Look of a Restored Old Dresse

You have this old dresser. It's been sitting in storage for quite some time now and you're not quite sure what to do with it. Well, one nice option would be to restore it and fancy new drawer pulls would be a lovely way to finish the job.

Really, drawer pulls are a great way to finish off the project and it is because there are many, many decorative options to choose from. How is this possible you ask? The reason is because they are crafted from all sorts of eye-catching materials and can be styled a number of different ways through different designs and finishes.

For instance, there are drawer pulls that have a gorgeous antique appearance. Like, ones that are made from wrought iron that feature elegant pointing scrollwork finished in a black powder coating. Or, others that are made from bronze and have an oil rubbed finish applied to them. The antique options aren't the only ones that are available either since there are others as well. For instance, maybe you decided to turn that dresser of yours into a modern masterpiece, then ones that are crafted from stainless steel with a sleek look finished in a bold pewter would be the way for you to go. There are also options that have a very traditional vibe built from brass that have a polished brass finish, ones that are more on the art deco side made from plastic that are infused with colors such as vibrant reds and blues, and there are options that have a country feel made from wood stained in cherry and dark walnut and others built from porcelain that have hand painted designs on them.

The choices when it comes to drawer pulls don't stop there either. In fact, you can get ones that have a theme to them as well. For example, maybe you decided to have that dresser become your child's new dresser. Then, what you could do is get ones that have an animal shape or others that look like letters in the alphabet. Again, the choices don't just stop there with the themed versions either since you can get ones in the shape of vines, others that look like twisting ropes, and some that have small jewels built right into them.

An easy way to see all the drawer pulls that are available is to just turn on that family computer of yours and do some browsing on the Internet. You'll see that there are a slew of online stores that sell them, making it easy to find exactly what you're looking for. Plus, it makes finding deals easy to since you can price compare the different items. When you do decide on something, what you buy will also be shipped right to you so no having to waste time and gas on a trip to the hardware store.

In the end, if you have an old dresser that you're thinking about throwing out, instead, just restore it and complete its look with drawer pulls. There are many options that will be sure to please.
