Doors- I hate to be pessimistic but I
deeply despise most of the doors I come across in the world. I
hate those cookie cutter doors that are in tons of houses...you know what I am talking about: those terrible, plain, white doors with a gold or silver doorknob that has a push in lock. It usually looks something like this:
Again, maybe I think about it more because I live in a very plain apartment with doors like this:
 |
| ICK!!!! |
So they are always staring me in the face! These handles are also bad when you have an adventerous puppy- because she can EASILY open all of my doors. OH yes, I'm talkin' about Gracie-a.k.a. sticky paws. She gets naughty when I am not looking and breaks into the laundry room...
 |
| BUSTED! |
anyways, there are a lot of
horrible doors out there:
 |
| sick |
 |
| sick |
 |
| ultra sick |
My dream house would have
dankilicious doors like this:
 |
| i love the chalkboard door idea- so great for a basement/playroom |
 |
| I think these doors are actually for a cabinet but whatevs- they are amazeballs |
 |
| let there be light!!! i love it! |
- my BFF's (diana):
parents have some bomb diggity doors. I know it's weird to love their doors but whatevs- it is what it is-
so with dk's help-here are some pics of their doors:
 |
| back door- very nice-love the matching wood trim |
 |
| now this is a gold knob done right! |
 |
| sickie front door- gives the house instant character before even walking inside |
 |
| door to backyard- beautimus- just lovely, old, thick wood |
 |
| indoor part of the front door- perfect handle- bold, heavy, interesting & classic |
 |
| perf. |
 |
| gotta love a latch- this goes with my love of barns- in my dream house there will be no terrible doorknobs only sickie gnar gnar latches! |
 |
| simple, yet perfect swinging door to the kitchen |
 |
| another latch on the closet door |
 |
| bedroom door |
Doors can make a huge difference in giving your home character. Don't forget about them!
