Early to Mid Century Door Salvage

I couldn't see these doors be thrown away. Early to mid century Doors made into a rolling in closet with convertible shelves for garage storage or possible pantry
Solid brass
Milk glass
Porcelain
Before I decided to build shelves.
A small wooden flowerbox doubles as a little catchall.
The shelves are removed easily by pulling them straight out so you can use it as a full Service guest coat closet.....
I added the front exterior door with lots of character and called it a day.

    love it . I have the most beautiful door from the turn of the century, there is a window in it with the most beautiful etching of a majestic deer . I can have my husband build me a cabinet like this!

      @Bonniemcfarlane Bonnie- My son lives in a house that had a door glass as you are describing your's- with the deer etched into the glass. They had a shelf on the wall behind it, and opened the door too wide and the glass hit the corner of the shelf and shattered. I wonder if you could take a picture of yours and send the picture to me, I would like to see if I can recreate it with a stencil. I really would appreciate it. I will give you my email address, that you can send it to. It is gracer56iinfo@gmail.com Thanks in advance! I will also understand if you can't.
