This handy tip from brightside.me is a great one that I'm sure many people will appreciate, especially those with little or no DIY savvy! If you have drawer handles that keep coming loose no matter what you do, this is an extremely quick and easy way to prevent handles from coming loose ever again.

Remove the screw from the handle and coat the top with clear nail polishing. Make sure you cover the entire top of the thread with nail polish.

 

 

Place the screw back in place, hold the handle firmly in place, and drive the screw into the handle.

The nail polish gives the screw thread extra grip and once it dries it will hold the screw firmly in place - no more loose screws!
