How to Make *Decorative Knobs*

So I kinda love being put in a bind sometimes, because it forces me to get creative!

I was trying to finish up a contributor post for Lil' Luna and I had NO time to run over to Hobby Lobby for knobs!

AAAHHH!! What to do? What to do?

I was in WalMart and walked by the crafty section... My creative juices started flowing and I picked up some really pretty necklace pendants for 3.00 a piece.

 These were my first choice....

 Then I saw THESE!!!! I used pliers to carefully break off the ring on the top that holds the necklace chain.

I ran home and rummaged thru my own craft supplies for something I could use to attach them to my shelf!

I decided to use upholstery tacks I had left over from another project. I hot glued mine (for times sake). 

But for permanent hold use hammerhead or E6000 glue.

See how the shelf needs a little added pizazz!! 

 **PIZAZZ!!!**

{to see how I antiqued this shelf using spray paint go HERE}

The upholstery tack worked great because I was able to push it straight into the wood without having to drill any holes.

Now for USABLE knobs, use a permanent glue to attach a bead or short wood dowel to the back of jewel so it pokes out a bit from your drawer. Then glue a longer screw or bolt to that to go thru your drawer, put a nut on the back and you are DONE!

(if you want me to do a video tutorial or picture tutorial on exactly how to do this, let me know!)
