I think it would suffice to say that I have a "thing" for old architectural pieces... and this shabby five panel door is no exception.
Working hinges still intact means that this door will have great functionality as a cabinet front eventually. |
I've found that you don't always have to refurbish something or even re-purpose it to enjoy it. This door has found a place in my dining room as a free-standing piece of art... or you could say that I just leaned it against the wall to take a good look at it and just decided to leave it there.
I actually have plans to turn it into a storage unit with shelving, but for now it's charm as art is perfect where it is.
As you can see, the back side of the door still has a little more color to it. |
After reeling it in at the bargain price of $1.00, I'm feeling pretty good about whatever the final destination of this piece might be.
