Customer Project Feature - Larry in Indiana

I recently got a piece sent in from a friendly customer, Larry in Indiana. What a piece! I'd love to have that in my office. Looks like quite a nice workshop as well. Thanks for using our little labels and for sharing this beauty Larry!

Vivid Furniture Designs

One of our most talented customers recently shared a whole set of photos featuring her latest work using our hardware, so I thought I'd put together a quick post showing them off.

Big thank you to Vivid Furniture Designs. It is great to see our hardware on such beautiful furniture! Laura specializes in mid century modern, shabby chic, and farmhouse styles. Available for custom work in Minnesota, St. Paul area.

Starting off with some beautiful tallboy style dressers in a variety of styles and with a variety of hardware!

And she does plenty of sideboards as well. These three are beautiful and the top one features the new champagne bronze cabinet pulls from Liberty Hardware.

DLH Friends Projects: D-Day Edition

No! Not that "D!" I mean Delivery Day! We are under a week for the due date of my first child and I'm churning out this blog post now because it might be my last for a little bit. I love doing them, but something tells me I'll have to spend my work time very wisely in the next few months.

So I'll jump right in with a beauty from Matthew at Combat Veterans Restoration & Rehab! I just met Matthew a couple weeks ago and I've already got several pieces of his work featured on our website and social media. Please check out his page as he has a great mission and don't forget that D. Lawless has an active and retired military discount of 10%.

The very popular cup pulls he used can be found here!

This clean and bright looking dresser makeover includes our milk white glass knobs and comes to us from Jazzy Sellers!  Looks great and the knobs are nice match with the paint! They have a nice store in Springfield, Massachusetts and also sell on Etsy.


Out of Saint Louis, Missouri we have a nice shot of our french drapery style pulls from The Blue Jar! The flowery drawers look wonderful and go perfectly with the pulls. Lots more beautiful work on her page!


These two beauties come from Twig & Thyme Design in Sterling, Virginia.  Courtney is a real talent and has some of the best photography and staging in the game! It's and honor to feature her work and she generously sent me photos of this knob and backplate out of the blue!



I've had the pleasure of using projects from Roberta of Eastern Shore Chic several times in the short time since I met her and first had the pleasure of seeing her work. She does same really fabulous restorations and must be working dawn til dusk to have so many projects finishing up so close together!



In usual Derrick Lawless style I  have provided hardware for pictures and have gotten back far more than I gave. I'm good at this! :) Sheila at Hidden Treasures Refinishing ordered cup pulls and I sent her the two bottom knobs for free.Then she sent me these pictures! That's not a fair trade though, I'm going to have to provide all of the hardware next time!



That's all til next week! Join the mailing list for more beauties!

Friends Befores & Afters Part III

Good morning! This is part three of our series of before and after furniture projects from the D. Lawless Hardware Friends group. I've got five more people to feature with their work. First though I want to remind everyone that will will be closed Thursday - Sunday for the holiday. But, we will return CYBER MONDAY WITH FREE SHIPPING ON EVERY ORDER! Sorry, but I have to exclude the HI, AK, and Canadian customers unless I figure something out. That is just too big a money loser for us to ship that far.

Here's how that goes: "Free shipping for everyone!" Canadian customer "I'll take 20 of your bulkiest item and I live by the North Pole!"  Haha, sorry guys!


First up is a lovely project from Renee using our restoration hardware collection. Renee cheats and switches out the furniture. She expects me to believe this is the same dresser. I'll humor her! She runs the page The Painted Home.

Next up are a couple of nice projects from Melissa of Vintage Keiralie. Melissa used these bail pulls on both of these projects I believe. Or at least one anyways, I see so much hardware...Melissa is a recent acquaintance of mine and I couldn't be happier to be allowed to post some of her work!

And now introducing my number one contributor! Tommye run ReDesigned by Doherty and she REALLY redesigns stuff. Hard to believe she started with the same piece on some of these! The first project is the perfect example. I don't know how she thought to do this with an old (sewing?) table
 but it's so cool! When Tommye does a piece, it's not just painting it up, it's totally rethinking how the piece will be used and figuring out how to get the best out of it like the last one where she chopped it in half!

Elizabeth Burns of Elizabeth Burns Designs has been a long time contributor to our website and I know for a fact that her beautiful photos have helped us sell a lot more of the pieces she uses. In particular these first brass drop pulls really got a boost from this gorgeous before and after!

And finally, Jessica from Parish Line Pieces turned this old junker into a work of art using some of our unfinished wood pulls. This project is gorgeous and reminds me that we really need to start carrying some more of the unfinished wood pulls so that people have more options to perfectly customize and get the pulls that look perfect with the piece. This is great detail with the pulls and I'm adding them to the product page soon. I also like how she ditched the old doors and left it open for storage. Thanks for that Jessica!

Friends Befores & Afters

I don't always get the before pictures from people, but recently I got a couple which spurred me to ask the group for some before and afters and now this is going to be a five+ part series apparently!  It's really fun to see people turn so many pieces of essentially junk to beautiful pieces for the home. It's a true talent to have the vision to look at junk and imagine what it could be with work.

So, I have added work to the series in pretty much the order in came in. Except a few people that submitted multiple projects got shuffled around.

First up is my new acquaintance and friend Re-Luv'd Furniture submitted these before and afters of a dresser she recently finished using D. Lawless Hardware and General Finishes Paint. Looks great and she chose the perfect hardware!

Sue at The Browsing Butterfly was actually the second before and after I got in a row which is what spurred me to ask for more. She did a wonderful job on a dresser I'm sure many people would have tossed. I really love the way the venetian bronze hardware matches the top stain and mustard yellow paint job. Awesome result!

When Colleen from Painted Gem Creations sent in these befores I couldn't for the life of me think of what project she had posted that even resembled the bones of this piece. It's in such bad shape I couldn't believe it was the beauty in white below using some of our drop pulls!

Business partner Amanda at Pendulum Designs & Restorations sent in a nice before and after of a wood stained wash stand. This post is also the perfect example of a before and after of staging and photography. Everything looks great on top of the makeover too!

I get a ton of work and photos from Lee Ann at Creative Moments so I'm using her as the anchor for this post. She is quite the productive person and always has something in the works it appears. She not only has her Facebook page but also a blog, Creative Moments, she keeps running because she is a glutton for punishment!! Keep scrolling 'cause I saved the best for last!!
