What You Need:
- spray paint (3 colors used here)
- strong glue, such as E-6000
- 2-inch-long flathead screws
- 5/8-inch-long metal spacers
- small piece of foam
- nuts
Step 1
Using a strong glue, such as E-6000 ($5, joann.com), adhere a 2-inch-long flathead screw to each end of the back of a long key. Then glue a 5/8-inch-long metal spacer (available at hardware stores) onto each screw. Let dry.
Step 2
Push the screws into a piece of foam so only the spacers and key are exposed. Spray-paint, let dry, and remove the foam.
Step 3
Attach the new pulls to your cabinet door or drawer, and secure with a nut on the end of each screw.
