How to Make Pretty and Easy DIY Wooden Drawer Pulls using dowel rods and 2×2’s. I love this chunky look on cabinets and furniture!

I was inspired to make these easy DIY Wooden Drawer Pulls after watching a show on HGTV. I saw a similar style drawer pull on an expensive piece of furniture and realized it was basically just a 2×2 and dowel rod design.

So, of course I had to make them! And I absolutely love how these chunky wooden drawer pulls turned out.

I love this drawer pull with that rustic whitewash finish I used on those drawers and the DIY Scrap Wood Table Top above it.
