Doors

I'm taking the day off to spend with hubby so I scheduled these beautiful doors for you to view.

Doors have always been a favorite part of my home to me and I'm always fascinated by them because it's the first thing you see after the front yard. It's the "welcome" to a home by its occupants. While the majority of mine have been the typical "sort of boring" kind of door, not at all like these, I've still tried to make them welcoming and pretty to visitors. These, however, would certainly be among my favorites and they are from other countries other than mine. Gardens and flower pots seem to be the central issue to the "homeyness" here. I could certainly see having one of these on my home and loving it! Style, beauty and patina............... The first one is my favorite of these three.

  13. They are really pretty. I always notice doors too. My door isn't the best, but it's not the worst either. I am thinking about painting it red this spring! Fun times!

    Have a great weekend!
