Distressed wood always looks gorgeous, especially when there are different colors. The french doors really make this look even better.

If you are looking for more privacy than a glass door can give you. Cover the panes with a map. It’s a great way to keep a private area secluded, and it is a fun decorative touch.

    Did you buy or paint the sliding barn door at the top of this page with all the colors? If bought, where did you get it? If you painted it, how did you do it and what did you use for paint?
    Thanks

    The door is on the website of a local designer here in Atlanta but I am not sure if he made it. Take a look @ Gatsbytimber.com
