Best Places to Buy Furniture Hardware and Kitchen Cabinet Pulls
Where to buy beautiful and unique furniture hardware and kitchen cabinet knobs for all price ranges to elevate your furnishings + designer-look-for-less hardware picks.
In seasons of rest, my always-needing-to-create brain goes into hyperdrive (because I’m forcing myself to slow down this month after our last several huge projects in the kitchen and breakfast nook).
I have a fun Facebook Marketplace furniture project waiting for me in the office, and it’s making my mind swirl with ideas! (Who believes I can actually keep myself from painting it tomorrow? Not me.)
The number one thing I know will save it, just like any furniture makeover or cabinet redo, is unique hardware. Furniture hardware is the “jewelry” of every project that makes a piece shine, and it’s one of the best little details that makes a huge difference in just a few minutes of DIY work.
When to Change Out Furniture Hardware or Cabinet Pulls
If your furniture seems on the outdated side or if your builder stock cabinets seem too plain, simply swap out the knobs or pulls for ones that express your style.
Painting furniture is fun and all, but the perfect cabinet pulls and drawer knobs are the cherry on top. It’s those little details that make a space come to life.
Plus, adding knobs and pulls is definitely not as labor intensive as painting. Win – win! (If you’re a furniture painting novice, you can see my beginner’s guide here. Or you can see my go-to method for how to paint cabinets like a pro here.)
Got a boring dresser? Or a basic bathroom vanity? Swap out those furniture knobs or cabinet pulls for an immediate change that adds personality.

It’s great supporting small businesses whenever possible, and Etsy is one of those resources where you can buy really unique hardware from artists, crafters, and even collectors for genuine antique pieces.

This is one of those sources that’s great for a funky bohemian or industrial look on hardware. And if you join their Explorer program, you can get a discount.

Both are great for finding hardware with a classic look. And their selections are definitely some of the largest I’ve found when I need to snag knobs in a hurry from the store.
6. Anthropologie
Price Rating | $$$
This one’s on the pricier side, but their knobs, pulls, and hooks are absolutely gorgeous and excellent quality. You can still get lucky with a sale if you keep an eye out.
7. Target
Price Rating | $$
For some reason, Target’s hardware line is a little on the pricier side considering their quality, but their pretty styles make up for it. Keep an eye out for deals on home-related items on the Cartwheel app too.

This one’s my little furniture flipping secret. The selection on this site is amazing! And their prices are pretty great too.

Buster and Punch has so many beautiful midcentury mod hardware pieces not just for cabinets and furniture but for door and electrical hardware as well. I love the look of their nostalgic light switches!

Hi Lauren,
Just wanted to say I loved your intro to this post. My family and I have been passing the cold/flu bug around the last 2 weeks and my Pinterest boards are filling with ideas as a result, glad to know I’m not the only one! I just discovered your blog tonight and I love you decor taste and ideas. My style is very similar so I’ll have to try out some of your diy projects. Hope your family gets to feeling better soon!
Oh no! Hope you and your family get to feeling better soon! We’re finally all well (for now) at our house. ‘Tis the season, right? Thanks so much for all the blog love! So glad you’re enjoying it. 🙂
Great resource. Thank you. I actually found a metal worker on etsy that I’m wanting to redo my hubby’s dresser to update it. Pricey very. But I’ve seen his work and it is so awesome. Doing an entire kitchen? Uh no!!
Oh wow! Mind sharing the seller? I might want to check out his work. Etsy does seem to be pricier overall, but it makes me feel a little better supporting small businesses over corporations.
Awesome, I haven’t heard a few of these. My favorites are Hobby Lobby and Anthro for hardware.
Yay! Hope it comes in handy. 🙂
The first thing I do when I buy a new piece of furniture is update the hardware – there isn’t a single factory original knob or pull in my house! I love that swapping out the knobs can make IKEA look custom and expensive. 🙂
I totally agree! Amazing what a pretty $5 knob can do for an entire piece.
Thanks a lot! We love being mentioned with the big guys! One day we’ll pass Anthro! LOL, riiiiight.
Absolutely, Derrick! Y’all are one of the big guys in my book. 😉
