Door Handles & Door Knobs

When it comes to do it yourself and other fixtures you may think of doing around the home, it’s also a good time to think of saving those pennies. Previously in the fantastic array of financial good times, it was all too often the case of looking at that dreary chest of drawers or looking into the kitchen in dismay and instead of thinking how could I make it better it was simpler to simply go out and buy new furniture.


Our lives have all changed now due to the financial turmoil we are all going through, still it’s no excuse for living in a home you are not happy with. The best way to get through it is to re-educate yourself to change or amend rather than throw away and replace. A door that’s looking rather worn and dirty, give it a new lease of life with a wash down and a lick of paint and a new door handle, door handles are much cheaper than buying a whole new door, so what should have cost over two hundred pounds can now equate to under fifty pounds.


A new kitchen? Maybe not, again a sand down and varnish or wipe and paint with a new fresh colour then with a huge choice of kitchen door knobs what was a dark and dreary kitchen has now been transformed to a new clean and fresh kitchen with a hint of newness as the new handles give it a complete transformation.


Too many times have we seen good furniture go to waste, but now really is the time to put our thinking caps on and save all those pennies and make use of everything we have and think sensibly about spending. We can simply save a small fortune by adding to what we already have or by transforming what we already have using a few extra pieces such as door handles and door knobs, its amazing what can be achieved. A wardrobe too, clean then sand it down and paint, there is also some amazing cracking paint to give your furniture the worn look which currently costs a small fortune to buy that kind of furniture, what’s the point of buying it when you can simply make it yourself. With a fabulous selection of handles from wooden to antique blacks to choose from it really does give the home a new look at such a cut cost price.


If you don’t have any furniture that would benefit from a new look, perhaps you could take on a new hobby of car boot sale outings or second hand shops, look out on the internet or local newspapers for unwanted furniture. The list is simply endless. We may be facing hard times ahead but we can live in glamour at the same time.
