So naturally, instead of buying new hardware for the bathroom cabinets, we decided to recycle them.
We used Krylon's Brushed Metallic Spray Paint in Oil Rubbed Bronze. And then topped it with a coat of Krylon Triple-Thick Clear Glaze
On Sunday, I started with the hinges from the bathroom cabinets. The were nasty, gold, and rusting. They really needed this.

New vs. Old |
We installed the new handles first, since that was the easiest part.
Then it was time to spray the handles for the guest bathroom. Mike had seen a really efficient way to spray paint door hardware on HGTV awhile ago. You just grab some toothpicks and stick whatever you're spraying into a block of Styrofoam. That way you can get all sides easily.

The weird white sheen on the handles is from the clear gloss spray paint. It's not as noticeable in real life.
