Transform your Door with Gold Leaf Gilding

Rebuilding a Side Garage Door with Reverse Gold Leaf Gilding | DIY Door Transformation Hi friends! In today’s video, I’m tackling a side garage door rebuild that combines practical upgrades with a creative twist: reverse gold leaf gilding. This project was a true journey, involving some unexpected challenges, new techniques, and a satisfying transformation of an old door. 🛠 Project Highlights Door Replacement Decision: Disassembled the old door and debated between rebuilding the same style or modifying a new one. A trip to Habitat for Humanity scored me a door for just $40! Custom Door Modification: With help from my friend Marylou (@MadeByMarylou), we resized the door to fit the garage opening: 22 inches wide by 72 inches tall. Tools included a table saw and a track saw for precision cuts. Prep Work: Removed old paint, sanded, and repainted the door with flat exterior white paint for a fresh base. Gold Leaf Gilding: Designed a custom pattern in Adobe Illustrator, cut it with my Cricut, and applied gold leaf to the door. After some trial and error, I mastered this technique, learning how to balance the adhesive (gelatin) for better results. 💡 Key Takeaways This project taught me: How to resize and customize a door. The basics of reverse gold leaf gilding, a unique skill I’ll use again. That DIY often takes longer than expected, but the results are always worth it! ✨ Why I Love This Door Upgrade Not only is this door now weatherproof, but it also adds a stylish touch to our garage with its golden design. While I may revisit this project in the future, I’m so proud of the outcome and excited to share what I’ve learned! 🔗 Tools & Resources Camera: Canon GX7 Mark II Tripod: Tripod | Tripod Wheels Editing Software: Adobe Premiere Pro 🙌 Connect with Me Instagram & TikTok: @Wood_Brain Patreon: Support My Channel 💬 Join the Conversation Have you ever tried gold leaf gilding or rebuilt a custom door?
