Updated Brass Drawer Pulls

Out with the old and in with the new. Updating brass fixtures can be cheap, easy and fun. Yes, fun! 
Remove drawer pulls and sand lightly. Next, spray paint two coats with a color of your choice.

I used white paint. I had a favorite designer in mind and wanted to create a version of her  popular checkered patterns.

Next, I found scrap paper with a fun black and white pattern. I cut circles to fit the top of the knobs.

The circle shape does not need to be perfect because you will glue crystals around the edge of the paper.  Mistakes are easily forgiven.
Use E 6000 to glue each crystal to the edge of the paper.


Last, use a small bristled paint brush to free hand polka dots and stripes.  Craft glue from your local hobby store will do the trick. Allow the paint to dry overnight. Finish pulls with a coat of polyurethane, which will give the pulls a finished look.
Done! These pulls give the bathroom a fresh, updated look.
