Laundry Room GIVEAWAY!
No, I’m not giving away my laundry room, but I do have a wonderful treat for you that I used in my laundry room!
But first I’d like to say thank you to all you wonderful people for your sweet comments on my Laundry room makeover…what a great group of gals you are! Your comments were overwhelmingly sweet!
I can’t wait to show you some more of the details of the laundry room in later posts, but this little detail has to be first! See this….
I bought these from a very sweet lady on Ebay named Lisa and she has agreed to give some to YOU! (U.S. residents only please)You might think, eh I don’t really need any knobs (or maybe you do, cause they’re gorgeous!), but I didn’t use these as knobs, so keep reading! I initially purchased them for my cabinets, but when they arrived at my house, I knew they needed to become more than just a cabinet knob, these things are beautiful! Lisa hand makes these knobs with her own digitally printed papers and they are gorgeous! (and she’s talented!) Here’s what I did with them!
I turned them into knobs/hooks for my laundry room wall! They are 2” across, so plenty big enough to use as hooks!
This is how they come when they arrive at your house. They have a screw with them if you want to use them as knobs, but I did a little altering to turn them into hooks!
I bought a package of Dowel screws….. (you get three in a pack for a $1.18 at Lowes)
Here’s what dowel screws looks like ..…as you can see, it has screws on both ends.
I just screwed one side into the knob like this………
Then used pliers to make it screw all the way in on the one side. (notice I’m using pliers in the middle so as not to mess up the threads on the piece)
Those little screws can turn any wood knob into a hook in an instant..see presto chango!…..
Next I just pre-drilled a whole in the board and batten….
and just screwed in my knob/hook!
and there ya have it….beautiful knobs that can be used for drawers, or as hooks on your wall!
Lisa has generously offered to give one of my readers three of these damask knobs! (that’s the number I used in my laundry room below…can’t see the last one for the washer.)
For a 1st chance to win please leave a comment on this post.
For a 2nd chance to win, visit Lisa here at her Ebay shop, Custom Knobs by Lisa, to check out all her cool designs and tell me which one you like best! (this girl is uber talented…you might want to add her Ebay page to your favorites page!)
For a 3rd chance, tweet about the giveaway and Lisa’s shop and tell me you did.
The giveaway is open only to US residents only. (sorry guys, but international shipping is crazy expensive) I will leave this giveaway open until July 6th, so get your comments on here and good luck!
Have a great week!
Missy

These knobs are beautiful! I love the idea of using them as knobs or hooks--ingenious!
Love your Laundry Room! And I would love to win these knobs - this is what my daughter did Elyssa's nursery in - the toile. She used black and purple and it turned out precious! Thanks for sharing!
Ava
Oops, I meant to say damask instead of toile!! I did go to the website and I love the damask light switch covers - if I win, I'll have to order one of these for the nursery - or I might just have to order anyway! :)
ava
These are beautiful! I would stick a magnet on the back and use them on my magnetic board. :)
Just retweeted your tweet! @bethbryan
The knobs are beautiful, and your laundry room is incredible! I love the idea of using the knobs as "hooks"!
Love, love, love them, Missy...and I'm in love with the room, too!
My favorites are the ones you chose...with the sock monkeys a close second!
Oh, these are so fun! Would love to win one.
Missy, I love the knobs-turned-hooks and your laundry room is beautiful (can a laundry room be beaurtiful? I think so!)
Hugs,
Cheryl
Your laundry room is certainly divine! I loved watching you unveil tiny little details and then the whole room...very well done.
I would love to win these knobs! We sold our house and are living in a temporary rental as we shop for a new home...let me just say the old girl needs some pizazz!!!
I would be delighted to win; thanks for a great giveaway! I'm off to visit Lisa @ ebay.
hmmm....hard to choose but I like the damask too!
Oh man! I think it's safe to say that if the knob is black and white; I really like it! I really loved the toile and the paisley floral jacquard.
Wow! I am already having visions of hanging them on my walls... (in my bathroom).
Love your laundry room! gives me some great ideas to use in my own. Always nice to see ideas for small spaces!!
Oh forgot, I love the black and white damask and the black and white floral and adding the switch plated that match...perfection!
Ooh i sooooo need these.
Love the black and white damask
Missy, thos knobs are beautiful! I love the black and white damask pattern!
LOVE the knobs! Your laundry room looks so great! I feel honored that I got a sneak peek, but it's fun looking at the big pictures, too!
Let's get together again, I had a really good time with you. You are a super sweet, kind person. :)
Neat knobs! Will go take a look. Never saw those funny screws before, but now I'll be looking for some to put in my toolbox! ♥♫
I like the pink polka dot with a rose in the middle, and a few others, too. Lots of cute ones!
I would love to have some of these knobs to show off at my house.....
Here's hoping!
Your laundry room is awesome! The hooks are the icing on the cupcake! hahaha
count me in on this giveaway!

I love the knobs & already have an idea of where to use them!
I really like the knob you chose best but close behind is the black & white toile as well as the black & white floral paisley Jacquard damask. Really cute patterns that you can't buy in the stores.
The knobs are beautiful but your laundry room is the most gorgeous laundry room I have ever seen!!!! I would want to do laundry all the time if mine looked like that instead of I have a basement with cement walls too look at!!!
Great looking room!

Found your blog from Addicted2Decorating. I love the way your laundry room turned out. We are remodeling our laundry room too and I did a similar colors. These knobs would go great in our laundry room. Can't wait to check out the rest of your blog. Hope you will stop by my blog and say Hi. :) Have a great day!!!
Your laundry room is to die for. I love those knobs. They would be the perfect addition to the "buffet" redo I am planning (I have that same pattern on a stencil in my kitchen).
Missy,
It was so nice meeting you and thank you for your kind words! You have no idea how much they meant to me.
I LOVE these knobs but then I have a "thing" for knobs, hooks, and drawer pulls, ha ha! I can hardly wait to start on our laundry hall (or utili-corridor as I so fondly call it!) once the kitchen is done (another exciting project for me!)
Have a great day!
I am in LOVE with the Black and White tree silhouette "2 dresser knob. I can clearly envision them holding scarves and such!
I love these knobs and your laundry room!
I just love love love the laundry room. Love.
And sign me up for the giveaway! :)

I see lots of laundry room makeovers, but this is my fav! Love everything about it.
Donna
I went to Lisa's Ebay page, & I love the b/w Toile knobs!
Donna
The knobs are amazing! I would have never thought to use them as hooks...truly brilliant!
Love those knobs. Enter me!
I so love you! I showed my husband your laundry room...it is my dream room. I love her knobs but my favorite by far are the ones you are giving away!
Your laundry room is amazing. I love everything you did. The damask knobs for hooks are such a nice touch. My grandaughters nursery is done in pale aqua & black & white damask. I think that we could do something really cute for her nursery with those knobs. What a nice giveaway!!! Debbie
i love the same ones you have so elagant
Love your new laundry room! Wondering what the dimensions of the room are? I think my room might just work, and it really needs it, for some reason that door is the one people use to enter my house! Eeeek! Would love to win the knobs!

I love those knobs!!!! And your laundry room is fantastic too!
Just found your blog today - and wow, the laundry room looks awesome! We are in the planning stages of building our new home and I'm looking for inspiration. And golly, these knobs are gorgeous!
The damask knobs would be perfect
in our guest bathroom...I would really enjoy a lovely laundry
room like yours! You definitely
have inspired me...

I love your blog and Love, Love, Love your laundry room makeover!
I love these! I am doing my bedroom b&w and they would look great in there!
I visited Lisa's Ebay shop, and my fav item is the b&w light switch plate!
I'd love to win this - I am re-doing 2 dressers!
I checked out the site - she has some awesome knobs!! I think for my project though, I'd go with the damask.
These knobs look amazing...I love the damask ones...
Love your laundry room. Can you tell me what Brand and color aqua paint you used! I love it...
