Default Finally Succumbed To the Barn Door Fad

The client enjoys finishing, so she's going do the stain or faded paint
finish of her choice, and pick out handles.


Some thoughts:
White ceiling and trim, blue left wall, pinkish floor (or is that carpet, reflecting that pinkish hue?) and the closet wall has a (raw wood) weathered look (gray stain/paint paneling?).

Finishing those doors in a different color might make the room chaotic, color-wise.

Did she ask your opinion as to finishing? Do you know if the client will try to match the weathered look, before topcoating/painting? Soaking steel wool in vinegar will produce a solution for weathering those doors, to match its wall (....*test some applications on scrap). Maybe she'll repaint the wall to match whatever door color she decides.

Looks good. Good job.
