Taking The Doors Off A Bathroom Linen Storage Meant for Open Shelving

We have another excellent reader redesign to share with you folks. This one comes from Stacie, whom you all know as the owner of this swanky new bedroom inspired by the custom moodboard we whipped up back in May. But it seems her bedroom was simply the start. Here is her inspiring I-ripped-the-door-off-my-linen-closet story for all of you to enjoy:

So, once again I have been inspired by you (and Lesley and Jeff). Taking the linen closet doors off in my boys’ bathroom was the best move. Although I did have my work cut out for me! I do not have pics of the doors on, but imagine big white plywood doors that would NEVER stay closed properly, and the mess behind them was consistently showing.

I had to remove contact paper, which was held down with nearly 100 thumbtacks. Those were lively to pry out. Who puts thumbtacks in contact paper anyways?

Some scraping, spackling and a gallon of paint later and here is the new closet. I ENJOY IT! I think it still looks totally cool and friendly sufficient for the kids.

PS: This is the ideal reason to purge your linen closet . I had SEVEN sets of sheets I NEVER used. Thanks again The house team.

No, thank you for sharing more of your stellar before & after projects, Stacie. We enjoy the way the natural brown and cream baskets play off the bright and lively wall color. Oh, and bonus points for managing to coordinate even the plastic toy boats. Nicely done. Be sure to keep those before & after project pics coming. And that goes for all of you now, ya hear?
