Decorating Doors To Brighten Up a Hallway

RE: Decorating Doors To Brighten Up a Hallway Post By Nena (Guest Post) (05/07/2008) Rice paper is also very nice, and comes in many colors and textures. Look for a specialty paper store or art store. I also have some sliding doors with ugly, round, concave, brass-colored door pulls inset into them. A friend suggested painting them white and them painting tiny scenes inside. You could also glue a tiny cut-out scene inside. Then paint over with polyurethane to protect from all the wear and tear.

I was thinking about maybe putting some brighter lighting and maybe tiling the doors for something different.

Most big stores like WalMart and Kmart have a large selection...make a day of it and take your kids to pick out their own door cover. Just cover the door like you would a wallpaper a room... I suggest removing it from the doorframe first and cutting the paper to size....we overlapped the sides for added durability ( so the paper edges didn't curl when people opened and shut the door. Fabric may also be an option.....

She was then able to use chalk to draw pictures, write herself notes, etc. She can clean the door with a wet cloth and start over anytime she likes.

I had tried everything to get rid of it, every cleaner I could think of. I got a magic eraser and in a few swipes it got rid of it. I don't know if it will work on permanent marker but I'd give it a try. - Susan Report Spam or Abuse RE: Decorating Doors To Brighten Up a Hallway Post By (Guest Post) (11/21/2004) KILZ paint will cover up the marker Report Spam or Abuse RE: Decorating Doors To Brighten Up a Hallway Post by VATightwad (1) | (11/21/2004) Contact "Wrap" them with Christmas paper or buy the one that is made for the door. It is more for the outside door but don't see why you can't use it inside also. I have seen pictures hanging on the walls "wrapped" also. It is a festive effect. Report Spam or Abuse
