Sometimes the little things can have a big impact!

I was wandering around in the Plaza a while back and decided to stop into Urban Outfitters.  Now, I've never owned any clothes from there, but I like the vibe and I knew that they have some home good items, like Anthropologie (sp?) across the street.  So I decided to take a gander.  The selection of home items was not as good as some other stores that I've been too, but in the knobs bins, I saw these babies.

They have the texture of a wicker, but are in a nice antiqued brass.  Best part?  They were marked down from $8 to $1.99.  Sweet!

I knew just where they could live.  You see, I have these built-in bookcases with doors under the windows in the dining room.  They came with white ceramic knobs.  Nothing bad, but no style.  Especially given all the random vintage features in this apartment.  

I didn't plan to replace them, but for $2 each (I needed four) it seemed silly not too!  I admit, they make me happy when I look at them.

Note to self: no more evening pictures!  Everything is either really yellow or bleached out from the flash.  Too back I already have a slew of evening photos on the camera waiting for their posts!
