How to makeover ugly french doors?
Replacing French doors is expensive and I have very ugly doors, more noticeable from the outside. I still love the sunshine that comes in so do not want to cut out the light. I thought about using outdoor screens but the light would be cut considerably. I live in New Zealand.
