Everyone drives by the new housing areas and see the coolest garage doors and wish we had them. Now we can! Take the garage doors you have, unless they are falling off the house, and give them a makeover to create a new look.
The ideas here are just that, ideas. You don’t have to use the same hardware they do. Use what you think is pretty. Make this garage makeover yours. DIY creating a faux carriage garage door is a basic idea that YOU get to improve on.
This is the easiest way I have seen in a long time. As soon as I get a garage I am doing this.
It takes just a bit of work on your part and some new hardware from your local hardware store or you can find some fun ones online. I chose a few online that I thought would look awesome and put them on the end of this post.
Change it up with different colors or get creative on your window shape. I can see endless possibilities with this DIY Creating A Faux Carriage Garage Door Project.
Painting will probably be something you want to do. Maybe it will be white, but maybe you will use a faux paint method that will make your existing garage doors look like wood. See the possibilities???
