Great DIY

Hot off the presses from design*sponge...

A great idea for turning those horrible hollow-core doors into something more substantial looking, but doing it on the cheap.


A little moulding and some paint. My kind of project!!



Black paint would have been great here, too. Get some more door paint color inspiration here.

    I have been dying to do this to my doors (which look exactly like that). There is never enough time for all of the things that need to be done!

    Swapping out the old, cheap knobs that you usually find on these doors also makes a surprisingly big difference.

    What a fun idea and very friendly for my wallet too!

    I must be somehow related to you. I have a house full of these doors and a tight budget. Desperate for change. Desperate.

    Hey, how do you do the molding? Also, would you spray paint, or use a brush and pan? I want to do this!
