Change Up your Look with Leather Hardware

When the mood strikes to change up the look of your kitchen, bathroom or even something as simple as that boring dresser in your bedroom, consider replacing outdated hardware with something that’s more updated or playful.

My most recent hardware addiction is sourcing out gorgeous leather drawer pulls or knobs. What I love most about leather hardware, is that it’s unexpected and the contrast of the warm look of leather against wood or laminate can be a really attractive combination.

Take a look at a few of these leather pulls and knobs to get you started and to give you some ideas and get you started imaging where you might be able to use them in your own home to create a whole new look.

This kind of knob replacement is the very simplest conversion, because installing it only involves one mounting hole, so all you have to measure is to make sure the size of the screw mounts will fit through the existing drilled holes.

What’s great about these is that they have a sleek modern look that will update more traditional cabinetry or they would look great on that dresser drawer set in your bedroom too.
