Okay. Does anyone else go into Anthropologie, browse through all the knobs, fall in love with half of them, want to buy a bunch, then wonder what the heck to use them for, and walk out of the store empty handed? This is what happens to me. Every. Single. Time.
deco block knob, $10
squirrel knob, $10
linen flower knob, $12
The knobs are so pretty but I really have no use for them. Do you?

My brother and I were at an Orchard a couple weeks ago and they had old doors/pieces of wood made into shelves with different knobs as hooks. They were really cool (and not cheap, either – we discussed making it ourselves).
Hmm…you’ve got me now thinking about massive door knobs! Like brass door knobs that they have in France!
I think the little glass knobs from Anthropologie would be great for a tea towel in the kitchen. But how could you limit yourself to just one???
These great ideas came in from Shannon (http://www.akadesign.ca/) via Twitter:
– coat hooks
– jewelry hangers
– bowl full on a table just for bling
– art – like a big mosaic
And since it might be hard to limit oneself when purchasing these beauties, she suggested to change the knobs as per the season…or every month!
Personally I think the bowl full could look kind of cool. Like jewels for the coffee table.
Thanks Shannon!
