3. Dresser Makeover with New Hardware

Sometimes a dresser does not need paint at all. Simply changing the hardware can elevate the entire piece. Replacing old knobs and handles with new ones is quick, inexpensive, and visually effective.

There are endless hardware styles to choose from. Brass handles create a chic and modern feel. Matte black hardware gives an industrial or sleek minimalist impression. Crystal knobs add vintage charm. Wooden pulls bring a natural and warm look. You can even mix shapes or sizes for an eclectic makeover.

To update hardware, remove the old screws, measure the hole spacing, and choose replacements that fit. You can also fill old holes with wood filler and drill new ones if you want a different configuration.
