My barn door obsession
Lately I have felt drawn towards these….

I would love to include a barn door in our plans for finishing the basement. We have a whole section of the basement that we will be partitioning off to serve as the storage /utility room. All the things we don’t want to see on a daily basis will be in there, along with our oil tank, hot water heater and boiler. What better way to close off that space than with a barn door?
This is the picture that started it all. I was searching for basement ideas and found this. I was in love. The space looked cozy but the barn door added such a focal point without defining the space. The search for more began.

Hide away your laundry room or closet. Get rid of those bifold doors and add a pop of color while you’re at it. Who said your laundry space can’t be fun?
