    I love the door and the pictures around it! It’s a beautiful feature. My imagination start drawing the rest of the house as a traditional sandstone farm house filled with memories and lovely handmade things. Great pictures!

    Thanks for entering my giveaway!

    Have a great day!

    That certainly is a wonderful door, solid enough to keep the world at bay.

    Thanks all!! We get a couple of kids every Halloween who ask if we live in a castle. (It helps that the door is kind of creaky) Actually it’s the house on my blog header. It’s just a little Tudor cottage (possibly built in 1927) in town, but it sort of sits up on a hill. The front (around the door) and chimney are limestone, and the rest of the house is covered in cedar shake shingles. I cannot imagine living anywhere else.
