Do you remember when I mentioned that I was adding a splash of chevron into my studio? Well, it was the interior side of these sad looking bi-fold doors that got some sprucing up! You see, this is the entrance to my “office”. It is actually a 5′ x 9′ former closet space; an amalgamation of a walk-in & linen closet by the previous owners. And, as much as I want to rip these out myself and put in a set of full height french doors, for now, we need to finish off the downstairs. So, in the meantime…
BEFORE:
DURING: (someone wanted to be part of the process)
AND AFTER!
The bold pattern and colour make me smile when I’m working. And, it’s elevated the lowly bi-folds into a working canvas… who knows what will be on there next!

What a fun little nook for a working space. Brilliant idea to have fun with the doors and the blue looks so fresh.
Another great project Rosa! It totally livens up the space!
Wow! what a difference… they look great!
So fun! What’s great about this projet is that when you want something different, you can just paint over it!
Just Fab.
Looks so great! By the way saw your tutorial on A Room Somewhere the other day and forgot to mention it. Hope you’re well!
Gorgeous Rosa! I’m still loving chevron stripes and am a little jealous of your studio closet! It may be small but it has doors…my desk is in our living room, amidst family life and children!
Thanks Lily! I know all about that!! I’m happy for any kind of doors to close off the clutter, and keep out little hands!!
This makes me so happy just looking at this picture! Love love love!!!!!!!!
Stunning! Takes the ordinary to the extraordinary!
Fabulous – aaaah I love it! Your chevron projects always have me gushing! I have this one cabinet I’ve been dying to paint with a fun graphic pattern, but I can’t seem to get up the courage to do it. I’m worries, it will bleed and create a real mess!
Yes, it is scary for me to pull the trigger on painting projects too… if it wasn’t the INSIDE of the doors that I was doing I don’t know if I would have had the courage to do it!

Your new doors look amazing! Very well done, girl.
Wow I love your bi-fold door makeover! We just re did ours with some wood detailing. I’m not sure if I’m brave enough to pull this off but it looks fabulous!
I love it Rosa! Such a great job.
Love it! And the poster on the wall too of course!
Those doors are awesome!!! What a difference
Thanks Sherry!
