Lookin’ Good

Many old doors have recessed panels perfect for insetting a mirror. You can buy an inexpensive full-length mirror at your local home improvement center. Cut the mirror to size by scoring it with a glass-cutting tool. Snap off the excess pieces. Be sure the area of the door in which you place the mirror has been sanded or stripped of any finish, then glue the mirror in place using mastic.

 

 

Message Center

One of the easiest and least expensive things you can do with an old door is cover it with chalkboard paint for an instant in-home message center. If you find a door that has multiple panels, try using each panel for a different purpose. Paint one section with chalkboard paint, attach a cork board to another section, and fasten a piece of sheet metal in yet another for a magnetic memo square.

 

 

 

 

 Add a mirror & mag rack for a front door organizer

 

 

This will take a little crafty work, but what a CUTE bench! 

 

 

This is a fav also! I love tin ceiling tiles… and this one combines the door with the tiles. You may have to cut them down to fit your insets but the tin is usually pretty thin on these beauties so it shouldn’t be too hard. Use tack nails or a metal adhesive. - See more at: http://phantasticphinds.blogspot.com/2011/11/25-ways-to-repurpose-reuse-vintage.html#sthash.8x1YyFBX.dpuf
