Similar to cutting boards, salvaged cabinet doors (or cupboard doors, depending on your lingo) are an amazing DIY canvas. A large blank expanse of wood, painted or not, with minimal prep work to be done- usually limited to removing handles and hinges. Now, I haven’t repurposed many cabinet doors yet- a few, yes, but not many– but I do have a handful in my stockpile, just waiting for their time to shine.
But other bloggers? They have repurposed cabinet doors in more ways than I can count! And UNLIKE cutting boards, old cabinet doors have even more reuse options because they are typically bigger and often made of solid (or nearly solid) wood. For example, this gorgeous cupboard door- I snatched him from a sea of white doors, but I still need to work with him!
Hello, gorgeous…
But, I digress! I’ve gathered some AMAZING projects using repurposed cabinet doors to inspire you. From simple signs to completely new furniture, I’m quite certain there’s an upcycled cupboard door in your future.

Well, what do you think? I just can’t decide what to do with the door I showed you above, but I’ve got other cupboard doors in my stash, as well. So many cabinet doors to upcycle, so little time. But I definitely think I need to put my thinking cap on and put him to good use.
Craft on!
