Use Vintage Door Knobs To Compliment Your Interior Design 0
If you’ve spent time, effort, and money making sure that your home is decorated just right, it doesn’t make much sense to skip the door knobs, like many people do. They are so easy to replace, as well as affordable, they should never be glossed over in your home design plans. Using vintage door knobs is the perfect way to get old school style and save money in the process.
A vintage door knob is just about any style of knob that is older than 15-20 years, and looks different than the current styles. There hasn’t been much variation in door knob style in the last decade or so, so you will be able to find some designs that are much more stylish than the ones that you currently have.
After you have a pretty good idea of what the style of your home is, it’s not too tough to go out and find the door knobs to match. The key decision to make before you go shopping is whether or not you want all of your knobs to match each other, or not. They don’t have to, and there isn’t any sort of interior design rule that says they should! I’ve seen homes that pick out door knobs that match the room that the door leads in to, which is very stylish. Another benefit of doing this is that you can save a lot of money by buying the one off door knobs at second hand and antique stores.
Even if your home has a very modern style, there are still some vintage knobs that will fit. Clean and simple crystal door knobs will match any style out there. The key is to be very picky, and only buy what is going to fit perfect in your home, there are a lot of choices out there so you don’t have to compromise!
