We wanted to redo the white wood moldings in our den now that we have redone the wood floors in there. So the hubs bought a stack of wood for me and I went to work staining it.
We’ve got this old table on our deck that does all kinds of dirty work with us….so I used it to start staining the planks of wood I wanted to use for the doorway.
I stained it with my favorite Minwax “FRUITWOOD” color. |
I kind of look a little psycho here but I think I was just tired out from a long day on my feet. |
So I got busy painting the 1 x 4 boards with the Minwax stain. I let them dry overnight on the deck. Luckily it is nice warm weather! |
So we put some “Liquid Nails” on the backs of each plank and glued it in place around the doorway, leaving a little overlap on the top plank. |
Then I nailed in some finishing nails all up and down the pieces. |
Almost done! |
Finished doorway. It looks a lot better than a white doorway with all the new wood floors and brown, leather furniture down in our den. |
