o you remember the master bedroom makeover we've been working on? It's amazing when I think of where we started and the amount work that RJNJ did to transform the walls and floors. I remember the feeling of joy when the rug was laid and the canopy bed was delivered.
If you remember, the room was still not complete when the photo above was first posted. We still had doors to install in other parts of the room. This post is all about the entrance to the master bath. Here's the transformation that took place...

BEFORE...strips on walls, brown door and trim, green carpeting...
DURING...walls and floors done, no door to master bath...
AFTER...door to master bath installed...
No, that is not your standard door! We picked up two of these schnazzy old school doors this summer from the garage sale held by Sue Whitney of JunkMarket fame. After a little TLC and bit of polishing, they were ready to be hung! They are mounted on flat track that our parents rescued from an 1800s barn that was being torn down. They are the real deal!! A brass ship's nurse plaque mounted to the center and a ship's key for the upper deck showers inserted in the keyhole adds a bit of fun to the mix!
Oh, Amy! That is so beautiful! We'll never get you down to Texas now and I don't blame either of you. The combination of your hunting and gathering skills with his gitter-done know-how is magical! Very nice job!
ReplyDeletecher, so jealous she can barely stand it!
P.S. Your websites are looking fabulous!
That is gorgeous--what a unique and beautiful touch to the room!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous door - love it! Linda
ReplyDeleteTHE coolest! Really! I love that they're the "real deal" and they look absolutely awesome!

A+

ReplyDeleteThat door is fabulous and I love how you have incorporated the barn flat track to hang it....wonderful job on the entire room!

ReplyDeleteThat is fabulous!

ReplyDeleteWow Amy, this is stunning. Tell Ron he did a fabulous job on this addition. I remember him talking to Sue the night we all were hanging out and he was asking her questions about Elizabeths doors upstairs. This turned out just so very cool and you must just be loving this! Way to go Ron.

What a magical (with lots of hard work) transformation. Very unique--rough and soft at the same time.
ReplyDeleteI love this room SO MUCH! I'm working on my bedroom now and I'm gaining lots of inspiration from your room. Mine is NOTHING in comparison, but I have high hopes that one day it may be just a tenth as nice as yours. The doors...LOVE EM!
ReplyDelete-FringeGirl
I don't think I've ever been more jealous of a DOOR in my LIFE! (Oh, sorry, that's not my whisper voice.) But I am completely in awe of the door and how wonderful it looks in your room. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThis is my idea of perfectly beautiful repurposing!
ReplyDeleteHo hum became heaven.
I'm sure you know this was a fabulous project and it looks amazing! I linked it to my "doors" project post too!
ReplyDeleteI love your doors. I never saw you mention how the bottom is connected. Could you give me a description or a photo of how you have them fastened. Thank you
