THY TRADING

As I always tell people, never choose a paint color based on a photograph alone. The lighting, screen filters and editing of the photo can skew the actual color of the paint. You may be disappointed with the outcome in your home. Make sure and purchase a sample at your local paint store to try before painting the entire wall.

Adding a sliding barn door to your home is not only a great way to add a design element that will be the focus of attention in a room, it’s also incredibly functional. Imagine all of the space that you’ll save by adding a barn door to your home. If you are dealing with a small area, for example, adding a barn door will allow for that expressive, design dramatic piece in the room without taking up too much space. If you are trying to close off an area in your home but want something with more character than a basic door or more structure than a curtain, than a barn door is the perfect option!

I’ve heard this so many times, “I would love to install a sliding barn door in my home. I just don’t know where I’d put it”. So many people I meet always express their love for this design element but get stuck when they try to think of the perfect space in their home to place it. No worries! Here are some of the best spaces to hang a barn door in your home and why you should add one to your home now.

If You Are Dealing With Small Spaces

Are you a fan of that pocket door that’s currently installed in your bathroom? If not, than opting for a sliding barn door is just as space efficient as a pocket door - but with much more style and class.

When You Need to Hide an Object/Space In a Room

Think kitchen pantries, closets in a bedroom or even a television that you may not want to showcase all of the time. By adding a sliding barn door to such spaces, you’ll be adding a conversational piece to your room while hiding what you don’t want to be seen.

Add a Dramatic Effect

Sometimes a room just needs a dramatic focal point. A design piece that stands out from everything else in the room. With the range of characteristics, designs and stain colors that you can choose for your barn door, you’ll be certain to land on the perfect look that’s meant to be in the designated space.

To Divide A Room

If you’re looking for an option that adds privacy and personal space to a shared room then adding a barn door is an unconventional yet fun way to make this happen.

To Close Off Part Of A Room

Open floor plans are great but if you want to have the option to close off part of a room, then adding a barn door to this space is your best bet. Maybe you want the option to close off the dining room from the family room - whatever your reason is for wanting the best of both worlds, you will be certain to achieve it with this design element.

If these examples don’t have you running to call your local contractor or custom wood design company, then let me leave you with this simple tip: If you want to add a barn door to your home - then just do it! You won’t regret it. You will be so happy you decided to go with it. (And don’t worry - I wont take the credit for it).

Until next time, stay inspired!
