A devotion to my DIY spirit.... Saturdays are the best for getting projects done and thats why I would like to devote this day to showing off ONE-Day done projects that anyone can do crafty or not. For this weekends project I only had half a day to finish and that why this posting is a day late. I wanted to show off the finished product. I had an idea for this project come about when a friend of ours wanted to redo a interior door into a headboard. (Something I had shown him a few years ago when we decided to make our own headboard.) When we had moved to our newest home the previous patrons left behind a fantastic older door with a beautiful clear glassy door knob. When our friend started this project I noticed the door knobs and demanded that they be salvaged for a future project. And that is where we start.....A set of vintage clear glassy door knobs. Trying to figure out how to attach them to a wall is where the idea came from. And now for the goodies.....how I created them. ENJOY!

| Found these in a craft bag at the good will for $1 for the whole bag. THought they would work great as a backboard for the knobs. |
 |
| These are the vintage clear glassy door knobs I salvaged from the head board door project for our friend. They just look so classy and I love them. |
 |
| So before being able to attach the door knobs to the back boards I painted them with paint I had left over from the house makeover when we moved. (This is actually my bedroom color!) And after I (Well my wonderful husband and his handy man skills) drilled the hole and inserted a screw large enough to fit the door knob hole. Then the boards were ready to attach the door knobs. |
 |
| And this is what it look like with the door knob attached. |
 |
| And as a set of two. |
We drilled additional holes on the back side in the center so that they could just hang on a nailhead. I can't wait to hang these in the entry way for our guests to use for purses and coats and things! For $1 (the price of the boards) I made these elegant pieces and in about a days time. LOVE'n It!!!
