A Hankering For . . . A Chippy Door


I have always loved the look of doors propped up against a wall as an accent piece - Don't you?

It's simple and pretty  - - what's not to like.

I have finally figured out the perfect place to use one in my house  - - now I just have to find one!

In the meantime, I'll drool over pretty photos of perfectly styled rooms that have used doors to perfection.

**Note:  Please make sure to use the source links provided if you'd like to Pin any of the following photos - - Thanks!**

FARMHOUSE 5540: Chippy Door and French Linens


Rustic & pretty, but the rusty chair is impractical, as it would snag clothing. To preserve the authenticity of the vintage paint, the chair could be slipcovered to make it usable--if used indoors. This seems to be a shabby chic outdoor vignette, in which case the chair will likely continue to rust.

Yep! There is no doubt,  a chippy door is in my future.

 Bye now,

    I have used old doors numerous times and they definitely helped to fill up some space. Can't wait to see where you put yours! Have a great day!

    I used to live in an old turn of the century house that had a smallish door in the shop next to the garage. I brought it inside and decoupaged it. I sold it at a garage sale when we moved, and have regretted it ever since. Hope you find your door!

    Hi Robin, the door I used wasn't originally chippy so I sanded it down to get the look. I love the look of the heavily chippy doors you've found online though. Makes me want to distress mine even more. Good luck with your treasure hunt!
