Doors

I can't believe how much work was involved in making these doors!  Mostly the amount of sanding that was needed in order for them to all line up and to fit into the doorway opening.  I added some trim on the bottom panels of the front doors as I thought they were too plain.  The door handles are beads that I found in my stash.

The doors are going to be glued in place and will not be able to be opened and shut. That is a bit too complicated for me to attempt.

  1. The doors are beautiful, Doreen!

    I usually use cloth hinges to hang doors that don't come prehung. Glue one end of a short length of ribbon to the edge of the door (or between panels if the door is layered) and the other end under the door trim. I use 2 or 3 ribbon hinges per door.

  2. It is too bad that I didn't know about that before I finished the doors. They are layered as the stained glass is between the layers. I have never tried hinges before but I must try them next time I need to add a door.
