Today we went down to the apartment (as usual), and saw not only our closet doors installed, but our paneled doors for the bedrooms and bathrooms installed as well. In the last post you saw the paneled doors in progress, but here you can see how fabulous they look on their hinges. We're pleased (as usual) to see the progress—our hallway is starting to look like a real hallway rather than a construction zone.
And speaking of doors, today we also made a rather monumental decision regarding the office doors. Up until today, we were planning on having three sliding glass panel doors. However, we've been concerned about both the look and functionality of them. When looking into it further, we found that there was only one company that could create what we wanted. And a very expensive company at that. SO. Today we asked ourselves, "selves, why do we need doors for the office anyway?" After a short debate, we quickly came upon the unanimous decision that the doors would not be necessary and not worth the expense. We're still deciding how to divide the office from the rest of the room, but we know it won't involve a door. Our current three options are listed below. Vote and let us know which you would prefer.
We are planning to finish our basement and having fun like you guys. We just bought 2 salvaged vintage doors for $25 each for our office. Still need to do lead test then repaint and buy barn door hardware and pulls. We will see what our final cost will be when said and done.
