Making a room divider from old hollow core doors (1)

3 hollow core doors
Sand paper
4 hinges with screws - I used 3 1/4 inch hinges
contact paper
Tack cloth
Paint

Okay I'm only at part one!

Doors- you don't need new door. I had hollow core doors so that is what I used, But you can use solid and more decorative doors if you like. It is best if two of the doors are the same size, the third door may be a bit larger or smaller for interest

1. Sand old hollow core doors.
2. Join together with hinges
3. Decorate (I'm going to cover the old handle holes with contact paper and paint over it.)

Look for the picture of the finished painted piece coming soon.

Here is what it looks like put together . Don't mind the mess in the garage.
