'Out of the Blue' Art Glass Hardware

Filed under: Decor

My favorite kind of doorknob has always been those old fashioned glass knobs found in old homes, but those are all the same unlike these from Out of the Blue Design Studio, which are not only decorative accents but individual little works of art. Created for everything from doorknobs to cabinet pulls to shower door handles, there's a style and color combination to fit every personality. Many of the designs are whimsical and full of color, but there are also options for those who prefer a sleeker, more modern look if that's what you prefer. Certainly not something you'll want all over the house, but an accent knob here or there could really be fun.

Lux Tip: Little Accents Make a Big Difference

If you want to spice up a room that looks a little bland, little accents can make a big difference.

One thing I recommend is to add luxurious, elegant details. A personal favorite would be the doorknobs and drawer pulls available from Anthropologie. A doorknob or drawer pull is such an easy thing to switch out, and the designs available can really change the whole look of a room. Think about adding drawer pulls like this one to an all-white kitchen.

Curtain rods are relatively simple to upgrade, too. A surprising place to find an affordable, chic curtain rod? Home Depot.

Sew a bead or bauble onto a pillow, or even use an old brooch or pin to liven up the look of a curtain. Tiny accents can make a whole room sparkle, and the details will make it feel more like home.

It's just another easy way to make life more lux for cheap or free.
