Antique hardware was added to a barn door
when it was brought inside the house.
Does your front door reflect your personality?
Maybe it should.
Love all the pics...thanks for sharing! Have a great day and thank you for the follow on my blog.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
DeleteWhen I grow up, I want to live in a vine covered cottage in the woods--with a fabulously ornate front door.
ReplyDeleteDon't rush, little eaglet. Adulthood isn't as much fun as it looks. But you bring the cottage and I'll bring the ivy!
DeleteThese photos make me all kinds of happy! Thanks for such a beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful, aren't they? The front door says so much about your home.
DeleteBeautiful doors, that`s for sure! They all have so much character! Thanks for sharing! :)

These are so beautiful, and it is such a shame that the art has disappeared from many of our everyday objects. I doubt anyone will be drooling over uPVC double glazed doors in the future!
ReplyDeleteDo you recall where the double doors shown in picture 7 of 23 are?
ReplyDeleteThe photos all over your blog are stunningly beautiful. The stuff that dreams are made of...at least mine!
