Sometimes all you need to fix a door that won’t close is to move the strike plate a bit. It’s mostly an easy fix with a chisel and some toothpicks. 😊 If you don’t own a chisel, a flathead screwdriver works too! P.S. Sorry to all my friends and family who have used my powder bathroom and my kids have walked in on you. Please come visit me again. 🥹 The door has been fixed! 🤓 | texasdiymama
