Updating door hardware doesn’t have to be expensive. Check out your local department store’s spray paint aisle to find an array of metallic spray paints that can transform you knobs in no time (and little money) - and this how-to by Better Homes & Gardens.

 

 

Want to keep the brass but not the shine? If vintage is more your style, simply sanding down away the shine from brass door knobs leaves an interesting matte gold finish.
