Do away with boring closet doors! One Kings Lane's special-projects editor, Megan Pflug, shows us how to make a transformation.

Good design is all in the details, so what's a girl to do when faced with lackluster doors? Never fear! Adding architectural upgrades reminiscent of a chic European pied-à-terre couldn't be easier.

Keep reading for the step-by-step guide to this simple DIY update.

Here's What You’ll Need 1 quart semigloss paint (I used Benjamin Moore, Spruce Green) Finish nails (I used 2") Paintable caulk Hammer Painter's tape Faux-plaster ceiling medallion (mine are 14" in diameter) Dummy doorknob (one per medallion)
Step 1: Secure the Medallion
Step 2: Seal the Edges
Step 3: Paint
Step 4: Attach the Knob
