I have an obsession with doors. I always have had this obsession, especially when I’m in England. I can remember as a little girl having the huge wooden door with large glass on it and having my mom repaint it when it began to be dull. I remember when in the 70’s “antiquing” furniture became popular and my mom did a green antique finish on our door! Once I was grown I’ve always had black glossy traditional doors.  Go outside to your door. Shut it. Then ring your doorbell. Stand and wait. Look around. Wait. This is what people see and study when they come to your door! Are you happy with what you see? People notice things you don’t because you see things everyday!!   Slap some fresh paint on your front door. Sit a planter out there and put something green in that planter. Make the area welcoming. Make it inviting. Love your door. And you’ll love what happens once you open your door! Below is a pic of my front door (with my sweet boy Norman). The rest of the photos are photos of doors I’ve seen while on this trip. You never know what goes on “behind closed doors!”
