If you are like most of us, you have boring interior doors. Flat and boring. Doors inside our home take up a good amount of decorating real estate, and while most of us would love to upgrade our interior doors to some more fancy options, that can be really pricey. Luckily, as long as you have a door, we have a solution! Read about DIY Interior Doors – Makeover Projects! Then check out these tutorials that show you how to take what you have and add a little DIY ingenuity to create a more upscale, custom home look.
