Carrie's Pantry Door

Carrie was wanting something different for her pantry door. Out in blog land there are lots of pantry doors being painted different colors. Which is so fun and brings a pop of color to the kitchen. Carrie asked me to paint her pantry door and distress it. I love the way it turned out. The picture doesn't do the door justice. You can't see all the distressing and the white that came through. Did I say that I love it. I am trying to figure what door in our house to do this too! It's so fun and cute.
This is the pantry door in original form, plan and blah!

Old Door To Picture Holder

I found this old wood door at an antique store. It was outside her shop in the parking lot. I asked her how much she wanted for it, she said $10.00-SCORE. So I got it. I didn't take before pictures because all I did to the door was sand it and stain it. It was primed already, SCORE again.
I LOVE PICTURES as you can see. I like different ways to display them in our home. I always thinking outside the box. I want to Hobby Lobby and bought the knob and the plaque behind the knob I got from a good friend that runs a thrift store and lets me rummage through all their knobs, pulleys, etc.
I didn't even paint the plaque I just steel wooled it a little to get the color back.
To actually hang the pictures to the door I bought the huge clips from Staples and covered them with paper.
I also used matte board to the back of the pictures for more color and stability. I got a big bundle of left over scraps from Bev's in Ogden for about $1.50. I love the way it turned out. Thanks for checking out my post.
