This is wood from an deconstructed\u00a0barn in Shiner, Texas. The reds and white you see are authentic, but we added and then distressed some turquoise to accent\u00a0an\u00a0antique family furniture piece by the door.<\/p>\n

As with most projects, this idea was hatched from a picture on Pinterest. It looks awesome in this modern home with many rustic touches.<\/p>\n

The door is largely going to serve a visual purpose in the house, but I wanted the other side to be functional–particularly for small kids in the house. So I used chalkboard paint to make a giant canvas on the back side. I routed out a finger pull, which we decided to paint the same turquoise used in the door as a little accent “pop”.<\/p>\n

The artist-client did me the favor of some advertisement as the first chalk masterpiece to be drawn on the door.<\/p>\n

I’ve done enough doors now that I thought it was finally time to be able to move the doors out to my “finishing booth” (aka the woods) by myself. So this door got to be the first to ride the wagon out for its clear coats.<\/p>\n

Also, although I didn’t get a good picture of it, I fabricated a door stay that mounted to the wall since this door and floor type weren’t conducive to routing a groove in the bottom of the door for a guide. I also put together the pipe door handle.<\/p>\n
