New Front Door

Gram Hubble sent us this neat coat hanger made with really cool old door knobs! If you look in some of the pictures further down you can see it hanging on the wall behind the door!
Nate working on putting in our new door. We salvaged it from a rebuilding center here in Portland and had to strip the paint off the inside. We decided to give it an "aged" look on the inside....
.....and a dark stain on the outside
you can kind of see our living room colors on the wall too... a sort of teal blue green
Putting on the new hardware....

The inside after it was done.....
the outside after it was done....
the best invention ever! I can unlock my deadbolt with a code we set or have the option of a key! Never going to have to be digging around in my purse again for my keys while carrying groceries, or have to carry a key on a run, or leave a key for someone when we go out of town! I can just preset a second code for them to use! YA!
It looks like the handle and lock are different colors but I think it is just the light, they are pretty close... weird lighting I guess
Now just to make the rest of the front of the house look nice around the door!
