Free Hardware Friday Update

We are currently moving our blog from blogger to our main domain. This is quite the job and we've had help at it, but I am putting of FHF's until the move. Then I'll have a nice one for everyone.

We are excited about our blog move and thanks to all the readers that made moving the blog to our main site actually worth doing!

Furniture Painting University Partnership

Furniture Painting University Offer

We are happy to announce a mutually beneficial partnership between us and Furniture Painting University. Members of FPU members are privy to all sorts of goodies besides the expert painting advice including a 10% discount at D. Lawless Hardware.

From their website as they can tell you about themselves better than I can...

"Our MISSION is to provide detailed instructional videos with supply lists, step-by-step tutorials and tips and tricks to make things easier.  We are giving you everything you need to have a successful and standout furniture flipping business. We want YOU to be able to create one-of-a-kind finishes for your customers. We want YOU to be able to stand out from the crowd."

Today though we are announcing a special promotion that I'm very excited about. Starting now, members can get a $25 gift card in exchange for photos of how they used their D. Lawless hardware. Since most of the members are businesses or aspiring businesses, they are taking photos anyways! So just send them to me and get a gift card!

The pictures make our site beautiful and give our customers an easy way to see how the pull will look in use. We owe a great deal of our recent success to our blog partners who have been providing photos up to this point.

D. Lawless will also PROMOTE YOU while we promote ourselves. I'll tag you on social and even include you in blog posts like Shabby Life who already sent me photos even though we JUST started! Here's her beautiful work using some of our antique english bail pulls! I will also post up her images and credit her on the product page shortly.

Free Hardware Friday #40

THIS PROMOTION HAS ENDED. PLEASE CHECK BACK NEXT WEEK.

Good morning! Spring is here! Well...maybe...I'm calling it spring.

I have a nice simple polished chrome knob from Liberty Hardware today. Normally retails at $1.78 but you can trade me pictures of the project you put 'em on and get as many as you want for free! No catches, nothing by you up front. All based on a promise. I have been surprised in the past by how many people have taken the knobs, the project got cancelled and they end up trying to mail them back to me. So I know our readers are promise keepers!

Here's the knob. As I said, from Liberty Hardware and it's 1 1/4" which is pretty well just a standard sized knob.

Free Hardware Friday - Polished Chrome Knob - D. Lawless Hardware

The rules are the same as every week...
  1.  Promise me (Derrick Lawless) in writing at the e-mail lawlesshardware (at) gmail (dot) com that you will take photos of your project in a timely manner (I am quite lenient and have no enforcement mechanism, lol) and send them to me.
  2. Describe your project and tell me how many knobs you need.
  3. Give me your address and I send them right over.
* PLEASE DO EACH OF THESE STEPS! I am amazed by how many people just tell me they want 8 knobs and give no other information or written promise. If I have to do extra work (like write extra e-mails asking for address) the promotion ceases to be nearly as valuable to me! :)

See you next week and thanks to all that participate!

The Return of Free Hardware Friday!

THIS PROMOTION IS NOW CLOSED. PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR NEXT WEEK'S PIECE!

It's been awhile, we are super busy over the holidays and close down for a couple weeks and all that bleeds into being busy upon return. But here I am and I have a nice piece of hardware to get us going on this first Friday of February!

Today's knob is a modern looking, or Asian style knob from Liberty Hardware. We normally sell it for $1.99 but you can have as many as you need free of charge if you promise to send us pictures of how you use them! It's flat black!

The promotion ends at 5pm central!
