 If you want the entrance to a room to truly stand out, installing some thin vertical shelves on either side of the French doors is a great idea. This makes the entryway look wider and adds texture and color to the space. Creative Ways to Use French Doors in Your Home  You can also use French doors as the doors for your closet. Since these doors have windows, this could motivate you to keep your closet tidy, since you can see the contents of the closet before you open the door. You get a small closet for coats or a separate area in your home for your wine and aged liquors.  If you enjoy the farmhouse style of decorating, you can give your home an antique feel by having French doors installed with a horizontal window positioned on top of the doors. This is reminiscent of an older style of architecture and can make the room feel more open and inviting. This French door option is ideal for farmhouse kitchens or sitting rooms that are positioned close to the kitchen, since the door can lead to your porch or backyard and let natural sunlight in.  If you want French doors in the master bedroom, these can be beautiful when the doors lead to the balcony of your room. This can provide a romantic element to your bedroom space, and if your balcony is big enough for furniture, you can add a bistro table and chair so that you can enjoy breakfast or dessert on the balcony. You can also drape curtains made from thin materials around the French doors for a more dramatic effect and to bring the room’s décor together.
