"Shut the front door!"

I just had to use that title for today's post!  You see, the paint project that I was working on was for the front door!  I will first show you a "before" picture. 

BEFORE

There was nothing wrong with my front door.  In fact, I painted it brown not that long ago.  However, I decided that I wanted to lighten things up a bit in the foyer.  So I decided to paint the front door this color instead.

AFTER

I think it makes it look more classic this way.  It started off as a stained front door.  It still is on the outside though. 

So come on in and let me show you around the foyer.  You can set your things on this bench.

This is the view from the front door looking into the other rooms.

I have extra seating in here too. 

And if you can't stay long, there are plenty of clocks to tell you what time it is!

I have a thing for clocks.  I have them everywhere.  I guess I shouldn't tell many people that because then I have no excuse to be late.

What?  You have to go now?  But I was just getting started!  Well, ok then.  Let me show you out.

I'm so glad you could come by for a visit. 

Do you hear something?  Oh yeah!  I almost forgot to tell you.

The bushes are now being pruned.  My gardener husband is busy at work trying to tame these wild bushes of ours! 

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some clippings to pick up.  Hopefully, I'll be able to share the rest of the yard clean-up with you soon.
