I don't think this qualifies as art, but... Can't Post

I converted our boring doorway into a Hobbit doorway. It's made (mostly) out of Styrofoam.
If you'd like to check out my instructable on the steps to make this I can provide a link.

This sounds like art to me! [In reply to] Can't Post

Did you have a round doorway to begin with? This sounds very interesting. I still remember realizing that the ironwork on the inside of Bilbo’s front door was the hinge assembly.

If you share a link, I’ll take a look.

It was square [In reply to] Can't Post

The original doorway was your typical 5-foot wide door. I pulled off the trim and slapped on the Styrofoam and wooden panels. One of my criteria was that the doorway could be restored to its original condition in a few hours.

Awesome effect [In reply to] Can't Post

The arch looks so real. My favourite parts are the carved panels, which of course are real and very nicely done. Thanks for sharing!
