How to Repurpose Cabinet Doors into Wall Decor

How to Repurpose Cabinet Doors into Wall Decor

Hey there! Welcome to this month’s edition of Thrifty Style Team hosted by Julie at Redhead Can Decorate! Thrifty Style Team is a group of uber-talented ladies who get together once a month to bring you thrifty DIY projects and decor inspiration that won’t break the bank!

My contribution to this month’s Thrifty Style Team is how to repurpose cabinet doors into wall decor. I love repurposing cabinet doors and I’ve done several different projects (you can see them all here) but this is a new twist.

How to Repurpose Cabinet Doors into Wall Decor

I’ve had this old cabinet door I got from Habitat For Humanity ReStore for a few years now. I painted it and used it as a wall leaner in the past. I didn’t get pictures of how I painted and cracked it, but it is the same process as my cabinet door project here. The only difference between this door and the doors in the project I linked is that I crackled this entire door whereas I only crackled sections on the other doors.

I found these sweet vintage style double coat hooks on Amazon that were perfect for this project!

I hung each hook 1/3 of the way down it’s respective panel. I’m not sure I like it that way or not yet – I have to live with it for a while before I can make a decision. Do you have to live with new-to-you furniture or decor in your home before you know if you like it or not? Sometimes I’ll instantly love or hate it; sometimes I have to live with it for a while to see if it’ll grow on me.

I hung it up on the wall between my dining and breakfast room. If you’re a regular here you’re probably saying to yourself “She has a breakfast room?”. Up until now I haven’t shown it on the blog because I haven’t got it to where I want it yet. The table belonged to my late uncle and the chairs belonged to my late mother-in-law. I want to refinish both but I haven’t gotten around to it. I’m hoping to get it finished this month, but I’m not holding my breath 🙂

This part of our home faces our backyard. Our cats often sit at the back door to watch the goings on outside.

    Hey Michelle – we love this projects. We too have some cabinet doors, and we’ve never used them. You’ve inspired us to get into the workshop and get busy. Thanks so much for sharing.

    This is a great use for cabinet doors! You are going to have so much fun changing out what you display on those pretty vintage hooks. How did you hang this on the wall?

      Thanks so much Paula! And I knew there was something I forgot to add to this post – thanks for the heads up! I used two D rings on the cabinet door and small nails in the wall to hang it up. I’ll add a picture of it here in a bit. Thanks again!

    I want to start seeing your breakfast room, Michelle! Looks adorable just like it is now! Your cupboard door looks great; it will be fun to use all year round:)

      Thanks so much Lora! Yes this will be a lot of fun to decorate year round. Now that I have my breakfast room a little closer to where I want it I will start sharing it here, but I still can’t wait to get the table and chairs done!

      Thank you Dorothy! I got the basket from Decor Steals! They’re out of stock, but since it was such a popular item I’m sure they will have them back in stock soon!

    This is a great upcycle, Michelle! I love the basket of flowers and the empty frames. I’ve got a couple of similar doors in my garage and you’ve inspired me to dig them out and do something useful with them! Thanks for the inspiration!

    Michelle, I love how your repurposed cabinet door fits perfectly in that spot in your breakfast room! I remember trying to crackle paint way back in the late 90s! I still love the way it looks!

      Thank you so much Jane! Crackled paint is one of my favorite paint looks for sure!

This month's theme is decorating with frames, so I jumped into the blog wayback machine to see what I could dig up that would fit the theme. I found this fall wreath from 2014 when I was in a shabby chic phase. Do you think it passed the test of time? ⁣

There's much more where this came from - you can get the directions on how to make one of these frame wreaths for yourself as well as check out all the fabulous frame ideas from all the LOL ladies on my blog - link in my profile.⁣
