This photo was taken before we moved in. The heater/hot water heater closet is the door on the right.
We couldn't exactly move the heater and hot water heater, so we did the next best thing. We turned the door into a chalkboard. One of these days, I may change out the molding for something more elaborate, and I'll gild it to make a real statement. In the meantime, I just painted the trim molding to match the walls. See the doorknob? I didn't think so. It's painted black to blend in with the chalkboard.

That is an awesome idea and a great way to mask something. I was sooo happy to have found Sarah white?? I remember her from Great Impressions rofl... so many of them around now. Too cool. cherry
Sarah doesn't visit my blog as often as I would like. I love her style. What was your name on GI?
Brilliant! I didn't see the knob!
hey - email me i have to tell you something.
Great idea Sandra! And painting the door knob black was perfect. Ahh the powers of chalkboard paint!!
Fun! That looks great. Smart girl...
What a great idea. You come up with such creative solutions. Thanks for posting this.
I came over to check out this post because I liked the title so much! Great idea - love the doorknob trick.
Perfect fix!! Love it.
Perfect solution! I love this idea! I wonder if it would work on my fuse box in my laundry room...hmmmm
I love it! I am still sorry we couldn't make a road trip to see your house when we were in SA :( I have been looking around for something in our house to use chalkboard paint on. Tell my very handsome nephew and beautiful niece "hello" from their favorite aunt!
Great idea Sandra! That room is great. Have I seen it since you moved in and decorated it?

Donna, we're still in the process of decorating and "un-garaging" the room. Stay tuned for updates. :-)
What a terrific idea; I had to look for a long time to find the doorknob, you cammo'd it well.
