Simple ways to upgrade your door!

I added trim and paint to take my builder grade door to something charming! The hardware was painted, trim was added for interest, and the whole thing was painted white!

I just added trim below my windows in our master bedroom. Someone suggested I do the same thing to our doors too. Yours turned out great.

@Mary Insana Thank you!! I bet your windows look fantastic! It's amazing what a bit of trim can do to make things look so much more jazzy!

Thanks Janel ! I used leftover trim from another project and the wooden medallions were from Home Depot. When I saw they they cried out for me to use them somewhere :-)
