Saturday she and I ventured out to yardsale with hopes of finding something that would work. We found it for $10! An old white dresser with black knobs that needed a repaint job. We brought it home and that afternoon I went to Lowe's for paint. $15 later I had the paint I needed. After getting it painted, it just didn't look right with the black knobs. So I started looking for white knobs. I didn't know how expensive those little boogers are! The whole point of buying a dresser at a yard sale was to get by with spending as little money as possible. So I wasn't a big fan of spending $10+ on white knobs. Fortunately I thought of Habitat for Humanity Restore shops. We have a couple here and they just happened to have white knobs -- for 50 cents each!!!
So here is the finished product -- for a grand total of $30.
