This pantry door was SO FUN to paint... and it was also for my own kitchen (YAY!) so I could reallly get creative with it! It’s actually “half” of a French door set that I found at our local Habitat ReStore.... and what do you know, it was the EXACT size of our pantry door... easy swap!!!

It all started with a coat of “Costal Blue”... I was going to distress and stop there... but since I was keeping it for myself, I decided to have a little bit of fun!  I started getting carried away with “Seagull Gray” and “Driftwood” using them as accent colors.  I was getting an old barn wood vibe with all the fun patina I was adding in.  To top off the color scheme, I added in a bit of “Basil” for a touch of farmhouse charm!  I added in all of the accent colors with a plastic putty knife, an aerosol water bottle, and a bit of dry brushing.  I did A LOT of sanding as well to give it an old barnwood vibe!  The door is also sealed up with GF HPTC!

I frosted the windows with a peel and stick privacy window film in a matte finish... (no one needs to see inside my super clean pantry! --)  The doorknob was replaced with a glass/gold knob from Lowes!!!

I hope you love this transformation as much as I do!!  Thanks for voting!!!! ❤️
