![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() All those dips and curves made the ugly drawer pulls the perfect candidate for some antiquing. I just requested a quote for the electrical for the job (I don’t do electrical…it scares me), so another step towards getting me ready to get that job started.Īnyway, when I needed drawer pulls for my book shelf turned under the bed storage, I had no doubt I’d find something in his stash. My plan is that when I get to re-finishing the kitchen later this year, I’ll use it as a back door. Now, I get it and I thank him just about anytime I need some random item, because there’s a good chance I’ll find it in his stash.īy the way, there is this beautiful intricately carved door in his stash that he half sanded down back in the day and it’s just waiting for me to finish the job.

That’s a good piece of wood,” come out of my dad’s mouth.īefore I got all into DIY-ing, I used to think my dad was a novice hoarder trying real hard to become the real deal. And sometimes DIYers tend to keep stuff that they think might come in handy for a future job. You see, my dad was a DIYer long before I was even a glimmer in his eye.

I found two sets of these in my dad’s back room storage stash. Here’s what they looked like when I first got my hands on them… But I did refinish them to give ’em an awesome shabby chic antiqued look. Okay, well, I didn’t actually “make” the drawer pulls.
