Well Duhhhh....

Did you know I have two entrance doors?

Yeah!

I imagine that!

You know when we were looking at this house, one of the features that I fell in love with was the front door.

It's a 15 panel glass door.

Poor girl has gotten ignored though.

This year I plan on prettying it up.

For now though, it is often forgotten. Everyone who comes over uses the back door. There is no walk up to it either.

So.....



I wonder if I took some leftover flowers and twiney stuff....



....snipped them off the main stem and hot glued the ends to keep them all together.....



....bunched them all together and tied them up with florist wire what that would do?


Maybe make a loop to hang it by....



and wrap it around glueing it every now and then.

Uh oh, how am I ever going to cover up those ends?



Maybe a small piece of muslin rubberbanded around them?



Then I could keep on wrapping to cover the rubberband. Finish it off at the back under the loop.

Hmmm....



I wonder if that would make her feel less ignored?

A good paint job might also!

Shameless as I am I posted two entries at the uber coolishushness Cindy's Make it 4 Monday!

Lovely. Hey, would I be a front door guest or a back door guest?

Good Morning Maggie! I miss our daily blog talk. Just wanted to send you a quick note from Savannah to let you know that even here I am checking in and thinking of you my dear wonderful friend! I am still coughing and a little under the weather- this is a bad bout of bronchitis!!!! My poor mother, she is my roommate and I am coughing my head off! But I am not letting that spoil my getaway!
I'll write when I get home.

YOur door is beautiful. They don't make them like that anymore. That's the beauty of having an old house. Elements like your door are a real treasure. What a pretty arrangement! It has fench feel to it. I have a french door that could use one of these lovely treatments.
Have a blessed Holy Week.

This turned out great! So did the one on the previous post, I am terrible at making wreaths and for whatever reason get way too frustrated when trying to create one. I have put together a swag like this though maybe that's what my door is lacking! Thanks for stopping by and for the inspiration, Theresa
