Knob Makeover With Vinyl

I finally did it! I jumped on the vinyl bandwagon!

I've been wanting to for awhile, but have been waiting for the right projects to come along.

What I'm sharing today is actually a sneak peek of a bigger project, but.... I ran out of vinyl!

So the rest of this project will have to wait until later.

For now though, I want to show you how I made of some plain white wooden knobs into something way more fun!


Left: Boring white knobs.
Right: Fun *new* knobs!

So who needs to spend big bucks on designer knobs?

Try transforming what you have!


I have a lovely tutorial for constructing these vinyl knobs.
Be sure to check it out!
