A Stenciled Closet Door as Wall Art

Hello Everyone!  It’s so hard to believe it’s February with this beautiful weather we are having.  It reached 70 degrees here today!  Now that the master bathroom renovation is done, I have been working on the upstairs landing.     

Several weeks ago, I purchased a set of bi-fold closet doors from the Habitat for Humanity Restore for $10.  I wanted to use one of them as wall art on one of the walls upstairs. 

First I dismantled the bi-fold doors and stained one of the doors.  Next I painted the entire piece with ASCP Country Grey and then lightly brushed graphite here and there.  After it dried, I sprayed water and wiped it down to show signs of  wear.  Next, I applied dark wax.    

After I hung the door on the wall, I stenciled a design pattern using gold paint on the three raised panels. This is what it looks like. 

   

I also added the glass knob to the door. 

This is what the wall looked like before. 

I really like the change.  

  I have one more thing I’m working on upstairs and it has to do with this…….    

…..and some thrift store finds.  The table was purchased at the HomeGood Store, but I have given this a make-over as well.

Thanks to all of you who left such sweet comments on our master bathroom reveal.  We have really enjoyed this make-over. 

As always, thanks for visiting and your sweet comments.  They are always appreciated.
