On Sunday, Adam and I finished hanging our interior doors! I love their dark finish against the white trim and light walls in the bedrooms and bathroom (this picture was taken from the hallway, where both the trim and walls still need to be painted - the trim will be the same creamy white we've used throughout the house and the walls will be the same blueish-grey we used downstairs).
I wasn't sure about using oil-rubbed bronze doorknobs on our dark-stained doors at first, but I love the finished look. So much better than our old doors, which looked like this:
Improvement much? I'm so happy to have this project checked off the list :) We're starting to look into hardwood flooring options for the bedrooms, which is hopefully our next big project! What did you do this weekend?
Amelia the place is looking great. I also like the look of dark wood against the light. Can't wait to see the whole thing together, compared to bits and pieces in a blog.
ReplyDeleteThey're so pretty! I love the dark stain... must feel good! We still have unpainted doors in our house... 8 months later! Gotta get on that...
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous makeover! The door is beautiful and looks perfect with the dark knobs. It's a very chic look. Well done!!
ReplyDeleteReally great decision! They look wonderful :)
ReplyDeleteOoo la la, so nice!! I love the stain colour!
ReplyDeleteThanks Linds! We actually only did one coat of the stain (I think the can says to use 2) because we wanted some variation in the colour, as opposed to the whole door being very dark. I love the way they turned out - my husband did a great job :)
ReplyDeleteTotally understand - we bought these doors in early fall and FINALLY got around to finishing them!
ReplyDeleteWow gorgeous doors! Definitely add character :)
