Walnut Studiolo was started with a drive to create clever solutions for everyday needs, and we appreciate the well-organized life. We know it isn't always easy. One way to make a big difference is to tackle a small project - maybe it's sorting out the linen closet or finding the right organizer for your desk. If you can finish it in a day, or a weekend, even better - it won't hang over your head like that never ending to-do list, but leave you with a sense of accomplishment. Our Leather Drawer Pulls are perfect for those small house projects. They dress up boring organizers, add a touch of ease to those sticky "contractor special" cabinets, and add that warm touch of leather to your everyday life. Getting organized now will set the tone for a prosperous 2017, so we compiled some of our favorite articles on the topic to help you get started.
