Woodshop Diaries is a DIY blog with building plans and tutorials ranging from large furniture builds to small decor items. As a former engineer, now turned full time DIYer/content creator, I tend to be a bit technical, but I enjoy sarcasm and try to throw in some humor along the way. Check out my tutorial videos here and then head over to www.woodshopdiaries.com for all the building plans and more detailed instructions.

Video Description
I tackled one of my biggest pet peeves in our new home in this video--the laundry room door. Our existing pivot door opened in both directions, but neither one of them were convenient. And while it wasn't THAT big of a deal, it was a source of daily irritation, so I finally had enough and decided to replace this poorly designed laundry room entrance with a more practical (and pretty) solution--a MODERN DIY SLIDING DOOR! Join me as I build and install this modern sliding door with frosted glass panels in this video and head over to grab the plans and more details on the project here: https://www.woodshopdiaries.com/modern-diy-sliding-door-with-frosted-glass-panels/ Check out the similar style sliding door I built like this using real glass and a router: https://www.woodshopdiaries.com/diy-modern-sliding-door/ Affiliate links below Sliding door kit available here in multiple sizes: https://amzn.to/3uJGBta Follow Woodshop Diaries On: Website: https://www.woodshopdiaries.com/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@woodshopdiaries?
