Suggested Uses

Maple ball knobs in the 1-3/4 inch size are a go-to choice for restoring and updating cabinet doors, dresser drawers, and wardrobe handles, thanks to their practical proportions and easy-to-grip shape. Their unfinished maple surface is ideal for color matching kitchen cabinetry, bathroom vanities, or bedroom furniture when coordinating hardware across a remodel. They’re also a favorite for crafting game pieces, peg racks, and toy chest lids in children’s rooms—just paint to suit any theme.

In trending DIY projects, these knobs are often used for finishing off Scandinavian-style built-ins, creating functional hooks on wall organizers, or as playful “feet” on keepsake boxes and handmade trays. For a clever touch, try painting the top of each knob in a bold color to mark drawers or as playful décor in entryway catchalls. The flat base offers stable glue-up or screw-mounting, making them well-suited for customized furniture or hobby builds where reliability and clean lines matter[1][5][7][10].
