White Front Door

Hi Everyone

This is our White Front Door
It did not look this way when we bought this house a few years ago
The story of how we came to live in this house would make you laugh and cry
it is quite an adventure anyway back to the
front door


I Love the way it turned out
♥
warning !!!!!!!!!
the picture you are going to see next is
frightening

Yikes !!!!!!!
This is the front door before
I love how my husband kept saying
that the house had
potential


Of coarse he was right
The house has the most amazing view, lots of privacy
and is 5 minutes from the beach
We are so lucky and so Blessed to live here
I have to admit it is still a work in progress
but I love the challenge of turning this house into our
{Home}


It is so fun to see what a little white paint can do

romantic saying for today

"Give all to Love; obey thy heart"
Ralph Waldo Emerson

    So so so pretty! What an amazing transformation - i keep telling my hubby, i'd like to paint our home white & put up black shutters....& he's keeps avoiding the topic saying, we've only lived here four years & used the best paint so it would last for a really long time! In time, i hope we will agree...xoox

    I would never have been able to imagine the current beautiful door in place of the old one. It is beautiful. I enjoyed looking through your blog.

    I love the changes, so much more complimentary to beach living I would say, I bet you love coming home and just looking at the front of your house, crub appeal is outstanding!
