Old Doors! I'm obsessed

Okay, I am pretty much obsessed with old doors and windows!  I was out with my friend last week and we came upon  a door that had been converted into a shelf like thingy. This place had the mother lode of doors. Of course we were in a smaller SUV and we couldn't fit it in the car, (believe my I begged)   I have 3 old doors in the shop that I use for display and a few more in my garage.  Pretty certain that if I ask my hubby to go for a drive up the canyon to get this door he will think I have lost my marbles.  But I have a vision for this particular door.  I know its mine!!
Gotta go someones knocking,

Sleigh Ride by Robert Kauffman

I thought I would share a few of my favorite Holiday lines that have come in.  This is one of my favorites. Its Robert Kauffman Sleighride.  So cute!  Its got a really vintage Santa on it and it reminds me of days when I was little  I am a sucker for anything that brings back Christmases of past.  It is a small line only like 8-10 pieces, but could easily be coordinated with a basic.  What do you think?  Call the shop and order yours today!  801-495-4290
