DIY Herringbone Door

DIY Herringbone Door!

What a FUN project!!! You guys, the door going down to my basement was the ONLY door in my house that was not painted white… I don’t know if we were just burnt out when I moved in or what… but it sat up painted for like 3 years haha

Allison had sent me a reel on IG that a girl did this to her door and I knew I had to give it a try!!

BEFORE

AFTER

First

I painted the back of the door and the edges! I knew I was only going to do this on one side so I wanted the backside to have a crisp clean coat of paint!

Second

I laid out the pattern of the the 4” plywood pieces in the pattern together.

I used liquid nails to glue down the boards

Third

Once I had all the boards down I laid every heavy thing I had down to make sure they dried correctly.

Forth

I used a jigsaw to cut off the excess pieces.

Fifth

I framed out the face of the door and used more liquid nails to put it in place.

Sixth

I used a jigsaw to notch out space for hinges.

Last

PAINT!!! I used a very light grey! Its called Aria by Glidden!
