Score a Fab Freebie for Perfect Finishing Touches

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

We wanted to wrap up the year by celebrating the small details that make a renovation feel complete. When tackling a major remodel or simply upgrading a few pieces of furniture, it’s easy to focus on big-ticket items like tile and paint and forget how much difference hardware and finishing touches can make. For our own bathroom project, we’ve spent a lot of time on tile and paint, but we also paid attention to fixtures, moldings, and cabinet hardware. When we renovated our kitchen back in 2008, hunting for the right knobs and pulls took visits to several stores — the right hardware really pulls a room together.

To help finish a project or add a polished look to your home, Builder Resources (also known as CabinetKnob.com) offered a selection that goes well beyond knobs and pulls. Their site includes a wide variety of finishes and styles, from classic to modern, and also features mirrors, closet accessories, moldings, vanities, sinks, and even kitchen islands. Those finishing touches are often what elevate a space from good to exceptional.

Rather than limit the choices for this giveaway, CabinetKnob.com kindly provided a prize that gives the winner freedom to choose whatever fits their needs. One lucky reader would have received a $100 gift card to spend anywhere on their site, whether to update cabinet hardware, add a new vanity mirror, or pick out molding that matches a fresh coat of paint. Below are the giveaway details presented clearly so you know what the prize included and how the contest would have worked.

  • PRIZE: $100 gift card towards any purchase at CabinetKnob.com
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FINISH ME!”
  • BONUS QUESTION: Share how you plan to finish the year. Maybe you’re hosting a big New Year’s Eve celebration, finally checking off long-postponed resolutions, or keeping things low-key with a quiet dinner for two.
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 30th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: All 50 United States and Canada
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per email address. The winner would be selected at random and announced the following day.

Finishing a room is rarely about a single purchase. It’s the combination of coordinated finishes, correct proportions, and small accents that creates a cohesive look. For example, swapping out cabinet knobs and pulls can instantly change the feel of a kitchen from traditional to contemporary. A new mirror or light fixture can make a bathroom feel brighter and more modern. Even simple additions like coordinating closet accessories or a well-chosen sink can add both function and style.

If you’re planning your own end-of-year updates, think about what will have the most visual impact for the least hassle. Hardware and trim are often quick wins: they’re relatively inexpensive, simple to install, and they tie together other design choices like paint color and countertop materials. Prioritize the elements that will make your space feel more complete and inviting, whether that’s a bold set of knobs on a refreshed cabinet, fresh baseboards, or a statement mirror in the entryway.

Thanks to CabinetKnob.com for sponsoring this giveaway and for offering a broad selection of finishing pieces. Even though this contest is now closed, take a moment to plan the finishing touches you want to add to your home next. Small upgrades can deliver big results, and a little attention to detail goes a long way in making a space feel truly finished.
