Create a fake bookcase door

I’ve transformed a number of ordinary doors into a fake bookcase doors. It is easy to do – essentially it’s just scanning, cutting and sticking!

It works best when you have a recessed door. You just have to be brave enough to get out the paint for the background, and go for it. I haven’t tried the process on a cupboard door but don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t work. Why not capture your favourite books? And you can always borrow from the library for selected titles that you don’t own, or borrow from friends.

I have also used wrapping paper with vintage book spines to create a book door, so keep an eye out for that too.

You could theme your books depending on the room beyond. Enjoy the process.

This is how it’s done!
