With a goal to have her renters understand that she's the handy person in her family and not her husband, Handy Women member Lindsay took on lots of home improvements in her old multifamily home 💪

Here's how she improved her doors! 🚪

Here's how Lindsay did this handy job, in her own words! 

"It's a pretty straightforward job that required no specialized skills! I used a one-inch putty knife to score around the edges of the doorknob plates and used the corner of the putty knife to scrape out the paint from the screws. 🛠️

Used a screwdriver to unscrew the plates. Put the plates in an old crockpot (did this outdoors, due to fumes) for about 8 hours with a dollop of dish soap. 🥘

Most of the layers of paint peeled right off, but there was one stubborn layer of paint remaining, mostly in the crevices, that I used a metal pick to carefully scrape off. 🧩

I used Barkeeper's Friend powder to shine them up (tested it in a corner to make sure it wouldn't totally ruin the finish first!). That's it!" ✨
