Up-cycled door

This is my inspiration photo for the old door light sconce I made.



This is the old door I found and decided to try this cute idea.


This is the after project


I found a cheap brass sconce and spray painted it cream then drilled holes, added glass crystals and shades.  I added some teal paint to accentuate the texture of the door and used old shelf brackets on the bottom to stabilize it. 









Can't you picture this next to your favorite reading chair?

    I love that it has bracket feet to stop from tipping. I always worry about this for some reason!
