How to reuse the old wood of the doors of the house
Old wood can be an incredible resource if you know how to use it. And the doors of a certain age, especially if they are run down, offer all the material one needs. One of the most common examples is the one that involves reusing cabinet doors to create coffee tables. Just saw the panel, use a support as legs and you're done. No special technical knowledge is required, and the result is often guaranteed.
Make artistic doors with little effort
A door represents a truly versatile piece of furniture. It can be transformed into a real work of art by painting an image on the panel, which can then be hung on a wall. Thus, in a few moments, you get a new accessory that will make your home unique.
Being a "waste" piece, it is possible to be imaginative: it doesn't matter that the result is perfect, but that it has a sentimental value for whoever will see it. If you want to be precise, however, you can use vinyl prints, which can be glued directly to the door and easily removed if necessary. There are so many techniques that can be used, for a fun and rewarding activity.
