I was recently lucky enough to work with Kaycie from Grey Birch Designs on her kitchen makeover and I was absolutely floored with the results! The kitchen looks fantastic and I got some of the best photos of our oil rubbed bronze bar pulls I could ever imagine! A kitchen like this I wanted to share with everyone. So without further ado I'll post a few shots here and you can see even more on the product pages.
The oil rubbed bronze bar pull finish is perfect for kitchens like this with good lighting. In darker rooms the bronze just looks black, but with good lighting you get the warm bronze finish showing well and not clashing or standing out as starkly on the cabinets.
Big thank you again to Grey Birch Designs! Grey Birch Designs does kitchen and other custom design work out of the Salt Lake City area in Utah. You can find their wonderful blog here https://greybirchdesigns.blogspot.com/ and you can follow them on Facebook as well with the link at the top!
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.
She is a busy woman and that's good for us since she gets her hardware here! Below are five more pieces, each one entirely unique and a wonderful addition to someone's home. Thank you Laura! See more at Vivid Furniture Designs.
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!!
Join the mailing list for coupons and more awesome projects!!
I couldn't think of another F that made any sense...well I could...but it wasn't appropriate for a business blog...:)
My peeps in the friends group have done it again! I can see their positive effects on our business day after day as the orders from recommendations roll in almost as quickly as the project photos I'm getting. So big thanks to everyone for all the support!
Today I'v got five posts to share and four of them are from people I've never had the pleasure of working with before! My day to day job is quite monotonous and this stuff really makes my job fun so I hope the blog is fun for the readers too.
First up! Courtney at Twig & Thyme Design used some nice oil rubbed bronze cup pulls from Liberty Hardware (of which we are a Master Distrubutor) on a pair nicely painted tables. I just posted the little guy, but you can see the bigger coffee table and the two of them paired together by clicking through to her page!
Next up is Amanda at Pendulum Designs & Restorations. Amanda was one of our first partners to carry D. Lawless Hardware in her shop and we are greatly appreciative! This piece here uses a few of our hinges which aren't visible, but the entire piece is gorgeous so I had to share!
I had the pleasure of chatting with Sue from The Browsing Butterfly for a bit the other day after she posted a picture of the venetian bronze bail pulls she used on this dresser to the group. I had to see the full project and convince her to let me share the photos! Mission accomplished! I am very convincing, hahahaha! Really nice distressing job and th pulls match the stained wood top nicely in my opinion. Thanks Sue!
Another nice new acquaintance of mine courtesy of the group is Denise at Designs by Dee. Denise posted this amazing piece where the detail and the hardware are in PERFECT HARMONY! Only the cup pulls are from us and she modified ALL of the hardware to get the perfect copper tone to match her drawer and door detail. Big thanks Denise!
As always I end on a high note! Erin at E Jay Vintage Modern posted up this gorgeous vanity with our restoration hardware! One of my personal favorites looks is brass hardware with blue paint so I'll definitely be adding this to our Instagram feed! #brassandblue
Please check out and support all these independent furniture flippers and artists!! And join our mailing list to see more work from our customer and get some sweet deals too!
We have had a huge influx of people to the D. Lawless Hardware Friends group on Facebook all coming in from the Styling & Staging group! I am very excited about the level of participation and enthusiasm the new members brought and today I'm sharing the work many of them have posted so far!
Every day I get more photos I can't believe how lucky I am to work with such great businesses and talented hobbyists! This list is in NO ORDER, all the projects are beautiful and each page needs to be checked out and like so you see their future work!
First up is this beautiful bright piece from Cottage Creations by Colleen!! Colleen used some of our brass restoration hardware to top off a gorgeous paint job. I'd never seen Colleen's page until she joined the group, but it's filled with great work just like that and we are lucky to have her around!
Our next enthusiastic new member sent in several photos and I am crossing my fingers that I get to fill up our website with more of her work in the future. Jane at Vintage Transformation Studio has used our new baroque style hardware as well as our glass knobs and we thank her for her business as well!
Not actually a new member, but one of our first members, Lee Ann from Creative Moments joined in and added a link over to this beautiful desk she finished using some of our cup pulls! Great staging as well!
Next up is Rebecca of Rejoice Recharmed Designs sent in some nice shots of how she was using some of our acrylic knobs. I chose this photo because it shows off the extra time Rebecca takes to add detail to her pieces!
I don't like to string these out too long so that everyone gets a nice bit of real estate for their work, so I'll end on this great piece by Robin using our solid wood little casters and glass knobs too I think. Robin does work like this and DOESN'T HAVE A PAGE! WHAT!?!?! Get a page Robin!!
That's all today and please join our mailing below. I put more customer projects in there as well as running weekly promotions. Later!
