Painting Bifold Closet Doors Brings New Life to Them

Every few years I begin the process of "nesting". This happens when I am ready for another child and all of my energies are focused on how to put a fresh look on something older. My husband and I are expecting our fourth child and we want to redecorate the nursery by putting on Bifold closet doors, among other things.

I am fairly handy with tools and a paintbrush so I was able to take the closet doors down and prepare them for a new coat of paint. Having a baby means having lots of essentials on hand such as diapers, wipes, crib bedding etc...Having a built-in closet with Bifold closet doors makes it a lot easier to see everything at a glance. It's also a lot easier to arrange the closet space in more functional ways.

Back to the painting! The nursery was painted in earth tones. I wanted more pastels in the color range of violet, lilac,and lavender schemes. I painted the Bifold closet doors in colors that were one shade darker. When doing this, one always runs the risk of having the closet doors be the center of attention. That didn't happen in this case. Instead, the doors took on a textured appearance, and they seemed to bring all of the aspects of the room together.

There are many styles of Bifold closet doors. The ones in our home are the raised panel type. This style of door allows for more creative options when painting them. Between the raised areas of the doors, I was able to apply some stenciling. This helped to create a theme for the nursery. This time around, it is Winnie-The-Pooh.

Our nursery has been used on three different occasions, and soon it will make four. The doors in the room are the originals we bought eleven years ago. They have never fallen off their track, nor have they come apart through too much use. If a new coat of paint can give them extended years in our home, then it sounds like a good plan to me.
