Hardware Store Barn Door

We decided we wanted a barn door to separate our doorless master bathroom, and started researching hardware online. Everything was upwards of hundreds of dollars, and way out of our price ...»
range. So my husband got creative and thought, "Why not use a trolley rail?" So we headed down to Lowe's and bought a six foot long trolley rail for about $25, and decided which hanging kit we liked (the hanger with 9 bolts) which cost $30. We built a door out of tongue and groove paneling, stained it blue (my husband has been dying to stain something blue) then later on painted it white (wife wins again!) The entire project (hardware + building our own door) cost $140, which is a fraction of the cost of the fancy hardware! For a full tutorial on how to build your own, you can check out my blog post http://www.killerbdesigns.com/blue-barn-door....

    I was looking for an affordable way to do this, too, and found it on your blog! It's ...»
    bookmarked and/or pinned. We will have to widen a bathroom door to accommodate my wheel chair and this is super cool looking and won't require re-wiring. Taking out the entire door (including framing) will give us just enough inches. Thanks.

  • To give a small room the illusion of space and light, I used a palette of whites combined with horizontal stripes in this small bath.

Preppy Striped Bathroom

A small bathroom gets a big makeover by updating with a palette of whites and adding some simple preppy stripes.
