I found glass cherry cabinet doors at Habitat ReStore for $5 each!
Ok, they were the right length but none were the correct width....No worries!!! We will cut them down and use a biscuit joiner to splice them together :)
Here is the old door to match the measurements
remove all the hardware before sanding and painting
In this case I need to take the door down 12" in width. I find the center and then measure out 6" each way to mark the cut. Then I used a chop saw to make the cuts. Now you can put together and see that it is perfect!
Next is to use the biscuit joiner, wood glue and wood biscuits to connect each side. (I will post Biscuit Joiner videos soon)
After glue drys sand the seams and get ready to paint!
I decided to use a mirror in the door for my bathroom to hide all my husbands stuff...I will post how to cut the mirror/glass so you can do it too!
