I hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving! I took a few weeks off for the holiday, and it was very much needed, but I’ve been busy behind the blog scene prepping for Christmas! I’ve been decorating up a storm, creating new ways to celebrate Christmas in our home and I’m loving the fresh new perspective I’ve gained on our home. There are so many changes getting ready to hit the blog, and I’m so excited to share more about the things we’ve been busy changing up and moving around!
In the midst of Christmas decorating, walking around plastic totes filled to the brim of decorations, moving furniture around and switching things up, we had time to switch out and update the hardware on the dresser in our living room. This has been something I’ve wanted to do for a year or so, but it wasn’t ever high on the priority list. But… as I was shuffling things around in my office (total nightmare zone currently, and more on that coming a bit later), I found the box of new cup pulls just sitting there waiting. The time had come to finally finish that project. It took about 10 minutes (good thing I kept putting it off, hahaha! 🙂 ) and it’s made such a big difference on the dresser!
Here it was before, just in case you forgot what it looked like…
And here it is now…
Such a nice, fresh change!
The new pulls are made of cast iron, which I love. I’ve actually considered adding these to our online shop, so if they’re something you’re interested in purchasing, let me know!
And if you look closely, you’ll see a few changes to our breakfast nook. A few other new additions are on the way, and should be here tomorrow! I’m looking forward to sharing more! 🙂
I’m so happy this project is finally finished! In the midst of Christmas totes filling the floor, piles of faux and fresh greenery laying throughout the house, random furniture scattered here and there…. this little spot is nice to look at! 🙂
Needless to say, there are lots of Christmas posts and projects coming your way very soon, I just have to clean up this mess first… 😉
Happy decorating! 🙂
Love the updated pulls on the chest! Yes, I think you should sell these in your shop. Missed your posts. Glad you are back! Can’t wait to see what new things you have done.
I’ve missed your posts too. You are so talented with a great style.
Looks more like “you” now!
And my house looked like that a few days ago.
Now, it’s shoved in Austin’s old room!!!! lol
Wow, what a huge impact changing the knobs made! Absolutely stunning!
Yes pretty please sell the pulls? They are just what I’ve been looking for. Your home is lovely, even in the midst of christmas flurries!!

Happy decorating to you too, Shayna. Love the pulls. By all means add them to your shop. I am actually finished with decorating, thanks to THE BRAND NEW CHRISTMAS TREE we finally got after 3 years of yearning. Now our little French Industrial Lodge is festooned with holiday goodness.

Cheers and Happy Holidays to all, Ardith
Shayna, I love the pulls. Funny I just bought a little chest smaller but similar to yours at HomeGoods. It has 2 wider drawers at the bottom and 2 smaller ones on the top row. It also has black pulls very similar to yours, but not cast iron. It’s going in my guest room as a nightstand. I paid $129 for it and the best part is I don’t have to do a thing!!!
I’ve been wondering where you were. Glad to hear from you!! Yes, I LOVE the new pulls. Totally changes the look. Can’t wait to see your holiday home! Blessings from Missouri!
I have almost the exact same dresser and same orig. pulls. I was just going to list for sale when I saw this post. Now I’m keeping it so I can finish it like yours, love it! Can I ask where you purchased the pulls? Will you be selling them too? I love your style and enjoy your blog!!
