architectural upcycling


"Each one is a window into the soul of its beloved owner." Eliz, a blogging buddy

A few weeks back I was out junkin' around at a local shoppe.
 
The proprietor carries a hodge-podge of things.  At first glance you think she is reseller of other peoples discarded treasures. 

Then you walk into the main shoppe area and she is displaying boutique items.  I was a little disappointed until I wondered out to the barn and found where she was keeping the good stuff. 

I am in the market for a great door for its architectural depth and character. 

  I love everything about doors; their size and shape, painted or stained, glass insert or solid wood, glass, brass or iron handles and the hinges rusted or pristine. 

 I love a great door!

 Sometimes a great door is in the eye of the beholder. 

Here is my great door find from my junkin' escapade. 







I am still looking for that great door but I am so excited to have this little piece of a what I think could have been a great door at one time.

The search for the great door continues...
