Continuing on the theme of doors, another great home improvement project is updating interior doors. Especially if you have dark wood doors or flat panel doors lacking character, installing a new door and adding a coat of fresh white paint can really transform your home.
My brother and sis-in-law are weekend warriors and continually inspire me with their DIY projects. Their latest conquest? Applying new molding to their dark, fire-rated door for a beautiful, custom update as shown below…
Before = Dark and Flat…
After = Bright and Fresh…
Also on the to-do list was new interior doors throughout the home…
It’s amazing what a difference the new, dual-paneled doors and fresh white paint make on the overall look and feel of their home. Kudos to Brett and Amy for a job well done!
I will warn you that my brother is ridiculously handy when it comes to DIY projects, but this same transformation can also be achieved with slightly more money and a little less sweat on your brow, by hiring a handyman or contractor to install and shim out your new doors. Either way, your home and wallet will thank you for a relatively simple update that makes a big impression.
Best of luck with your own home improvement projects,
