File this D.I.Y. idea under “B” for BRILLIANT!!! Some people are just SO clever!
I ran across this on a message board at TwoPeasInABucket.com.
For $30 (for hardware, frog tape and Rustoleum black gloss paint)…she transformed her perfectly good, but plain, garage door into an “old carriage door” but still enjoys the convenience of the roll up door! Genius.
I love how the paint looks like darkened, light reflecting windows….even close up!
I give this D.I.Y. project 4 stars out of 4!!!

EVEN CLOSE UP IT LOOKS GREAT!
BRAVO Miss D.I.Y.’er!
I am awarding you “Best In Show”! :-)
And that’s today’s….
Does the garage door roll up without a problem with those handles on them?
I must say that is VERY brilliant! My parents are in the process of updating their home and I think this would look great! Not sure if they’ll like it, but it’s definitely worth showing!
Stephanie, I know I’m posting my comment late in the game, but I think they would fit just fine while the door rises. Most (I say most because I know next to nothing about garages) garage doors have a curved track at the top of the doorway, so I’m assuming the door curves up before they hit anything.
