No matter where I am I always look for thrift stores so this challenge is always so much fun to do. If you want to see my past Thrift Store challenges you can go to my thrift store page to view all of my THRIFT STORE CHALLNGES POSTS.
I am so excited to share what I did to the bi-fold louver closet door I picked up a year ago from the Habitat restore. Finally !!

First thing I needed to do with the door is to CLEAN it. It was so dusty.
I removed all the hardware and spray painted it with Rust-Oleum bronze spray paint .
With the panels apart I sanded with 220 grit sand paper.
One door down !
Wiped both of them down with a damp cloth. I dry brushed Benjamin Moore Advance Chantilly Lace paint onto the doors. If you want to see how I do my dry brushing technique you can view that HOW I DO MY DRY BRUSHING TECHNIQUE.
I took a damp cloth and wiped off some of the white paint. Placed the hardware back on the doors.
I am placing it in the corner behind my furniture along the sofa wall. I moved things around to fit the new look.
I just love how this fills the back corner. I made a wreath out of Dollar Tree picks and a clearance wreath. I posted the quick tutorial on my Facebook page last week. To view the tutorial on my wreath you can check it out DIY TWIGGY WREATH. For my friends that would like to purchase a wreath like this I found one here BITTERSWEET SUNBURST WREATH.

Now don’t forget to take a look at what my friends found for their Thrift Store Challenge.
Decorating our home on a budget is my thrill. I think a home can look beautiful without breaking the bank. Your home should bring the best out of you and make you feel happy. You should smile every time you enter your home. 🙂
Oh my gosh!! I see these doors and the word Love just overcomes me!! I have such a love for louver doors and have them myself! But these came out amazing Terrie!! Love every thing about these and what a perfect place for them too!! Well done here , great job my friend!!!

Thank you Teresa. Wasn’t for sure how they would turn out dry brushed. It completes my wall, which I will share when we do our DIY Challenge. Love working with you sweet friend!
I love what you did with the doors!! Styled to perfection ❤️
Thank you Shae. I love how the door looks against my wall. It is so fun shopping thrift stores you just never know what you will find. Happy Tuesday.
Terrie, these doors look amazing!! You really transformed them into something beautiful!! They fill that space perfectly!!!

Thank you Emily. They really did fill the space. The whole wall is complete now. Can’t wait to share the whole wall. I filled the center with my DIY challenge item. 🙂
Love how you transformed these otherwise bland and ordinary doors and made them into a lovely piece of decor! They look great in where you’ve displayed them and I like the dry brushing as well. Perfect!
Thank you so much Tara. The dry brushing technique is so easy I use it a lot! Thanks for hosting such a fun challenge. Have a great Monday.
So pretty Terrie! I love the dry brush technique you used! Beautiful!
Thank you Dori. It works for me and it is very easy to do. Hope you have a great start of your week. Love working with you on our challenges.
I love it my friend and love dry brushing. A great technique to give something the aged look.
The wreath is perfect addition. Job well done again.
