Fantasy Front Doors

I don’t remember how the subject came up, but somehow the idea of staining our double front doors in a deep, rich, warm tone is now on my project radar.  I love beautifully done double front doors.  Or just beautiful front doors for that matter.  Like these…

Love the glass on these beauties – although I don’t think I’m a tidy enough housekeeper to pull it off.  (I need to be able to shove stuff in a drawer at the very last minute)

And the charm is just everywhere you look with these cheery red doors.  And is that a cute little mailbox I spy on the right?

And this dynamic duo – all decked out for the holidays – welcoming guests inside.  Yes, please.

Isn’t this entry just dreamy in every way imaginable?

And even though this is a single door entry, I love the lantern and the detail on the transom.  Not to mention the glass on the door itself.

And would you look at the curves on these beauties?  If doors could be bootylicious, these would definitely hit the mark.  Stunning!

So, as a refresher, here is a photo of my front doors (from Christmas)…

Can you see where I’m going with this?

    Ok, so the dark wood door with matching screens, who wouldn't want those beauties? Hubs told me to "just paint it" when I said I wanted a brand new spankin' door.

    I agree with Marty, your doors and front entry overall is gorgeous and a dark color will be dramatic and gorgeous. What's one more project for the 2012 list, right??

    Hey girl!! Your front doors are gorgeous already, but I do love a dark stained door!! Our front door is already pretty dark, but I've been thinking about going darker….an espresso that will match our stairs 🙂
