I need to do some work on my living quarters...the ceiling material is coming off and need to get new doors for my closet. Is there a website that sells supplies? Where do I need to start to look? Thanks

I saw a trailer on this forum once with a ceiling covered in corrugated metal. It looked really good to me, and could be purchased almost any where. I have done two DYI living quarters, and i will certainly use the metal for the ceiling if i ever do another one. Curtains are also a cheap fix for closet doors.

For Cabinet doors you can find them online from companies that deal with cabinet refacing. Ceiling material can be anything from soft wall material to metal

I got some thin cedar planks at Lowes, put 2 coats of clear varnish on them and put them up with a nail gun using very small nails. It turned out great. Everytime someone see's it for the first time I get a WOW! It did turn out really nice. Be sure to stagger the end of the board seams so you don't end up with line across your ceiling. It was a pretty inexpensive way to go considering what the other ceiling options cost.
