Introducing Sknobs: Custom Painted Knobs

Sknobs- pronounced "snobs" like really cool snobby little knobs. With their noses in the air, because they are so cool, kind of knobs.

Just a little something from my art studio that I have been painting for several years. Along with decorating and painting custom canvas art for kids, these little guys keep me pretty busy too.

Snobs come in two sizes big and extra big. Just kidding...they are 2 inches and 2 1/2 inches in diameter with a flat bottom for a snug fit on your furniture.


Here are more of my favorites for your viewing pleasure:

My first order for Sknobs came from a friend that had just made the coolest craft room for her girls. It had fourty, yes 40 cabinets and drawers, all in bright white with the ceiling in shades of purple and the walls in bright apple green. I painted 40 different designs for each cabinet and drawer! The room is so bright and cheery...

The madness just went on from there. My knobs aka Sknobs are in stores locally and in Miami, Florida. They are all hand painted by moi, and are made especially for your room of choice. Custom colors and designs...


These are great for a country or whimsical kitchen look...




Prices are $10 for the 2 inch and $12 for the 2 1/2 inch knobs.
Painted with high quality acrylic and 3 coats of clear varnish for protection.

These are not your ordinary knobs, they are over-sized solid wood
with lots of attention to detail.



Great uses for these snobby (not so little knobs):

  • Kid's Furniture
  • Bathrooms
  • Kitchen Cabinets
  • Bifold doors (laundry room or pantry)
  • Wooden Trash Can Lids
  • Great for Kid's Drapery Finials
  • Bed Post Finials
  • and the list goes on and on...

Contact me at studiom1@bellsouth.net
for your custom order!

Please allow 2-3 weeks for me to put my heart and soul into your order.
FYI~ If you are interested in simple two-color with polka dots they will be $8 each either size.

So think about where you could use some SKNOBS!

Oh yeah...I have been thinking of opening an Etsy shop for my artwork.
Has anyone seen knobs like this out there? I am afraid to look!

My goodness, your sknobs are too fun. Do you ever run out of ideas. I imagine your little sknobs take on a life of their own.

Savannah is getting "new" antique bedroom furniture sometime soon, and we will need some snobs! I'm still thinking of colors for her room, but I will let you know. You should definitely have an etsy shop!

Too cute. I will browse the knobs. I use them all over to hang pictures. Much fancier than a nail. I posted bedroom pics on my blog. Let me know what you think about paint if you get a chance to peak at it.

Those are so cute! You should so open an Etsy store even if some one else has something similar, yours are sooo cute! I give you a ton of credit! Painting on a round surface is not so easy! Jen
