Finish It Up Friday...What the Doors Became.

Image
So I replaced some of the old farmhouse doors in my house with french doors. That left perfectly wonderful doors sitting around.  So I got creative and searched for some good projects using old doors.  First up, I made a coffee table.  It is a big table, but looks great with my uber long couch :) I didn't paint it at all, just left it as is.  I would like to get a push plate to cover where the door knob is for looks. My dad is a trooper and did all the cuts in the actual doors.  I did the boards for the bottom.  I bought some sofa feet too, to get it up off the floor. For the first two projects I set up the saw and such in the kitchen...it was a bit messy.  For the final one I was able to keep it all on the back porch/laundry room. My second project required 2 doors, a bookshelf. One door for the back and one cut in half for the sides!  I just used random pieces of press board/wood for the shelves. It was okay, but I decided it might need some paint.
