Over my 2-week Winter Break I managed to cross off tons of big house projects that had been on my list for ages—including painting the dated wood dresser in our downstairs hall bathroom. I’m planning to share the project (terrifying before-and-after photos and all!) soon, but let’s just say the piece needed a total overhaul, from top to bottom.

Brand new modern hardware was the perfect finishing touch to complete the furniture project, and I ended up falling down the rabbit hole of pretty pulls when I started working to choose the right one for our dresser. Scroll on to see a few that we considered, and stay tuned next month to see what we ended up pulling the trigger on for our bathroom dresser.

Modern Hardware For Your Cabinets

1. Dish Knob

2. Mabel Knob

3. Quinn Handle

4. Mid-Century Modern Solid Brass Drawer Knob

5. Galley Pull

6. Square Aerin Knob

7. Rebel & Quill Totemic Knob

8. Alberta Pull

9. Empire Knob

10. 3″ Brushed Brass Bin Pull

11. 4″ Bronze Corrugated Handle With Back Plate

12. Modern Dresser Knobs

Do you have a favorite from my list of 12? Number 11 was actually a top contender for our dresser for a while there before I decided to go in a slightly different direction. I’m surprised that I considered going with something a little more transitional, but am also excited to notice that my tastes might be evolving a bit.

Have you tried updating your own cabinets or drawers with new hardware lately? It’s such a budget-friendly way to completely change the look of furniture or cabinets in your home. I can’t recommend this type of DIY more!
