ANTIQUE FARMHOUSE BIFOLD DOORS - inspiration





The goal for these doors was to make them a statement piece for the entry way. They are builder grade hollow core bi-fold doors for a front closet. 




Here is a look at what is directly across from the doors
and the inspiration for the color choice used on the doors.

 

I used a store paint sample card to work with while mixing a
 custom blue using Annie Sloan Chalk Paints. I was going
to be dark waxing the entire painted surface so I had to
take that into account while making my jar of paint.

Here are some close-ups of the textures created, giving these
 doors the wonderful old world antique feeling I wanted.


I put together some unique pulls for these doors using
 vintage pieces from Firstfinds Hardware Store.
Below is a peak at another door I did with a different look.
The techniques I used to create the layers and texture on 
these doors will start in tomorrow's post.
