This weekend marked two years since we settled on our very special place in the country.

We celebrated by working hard on farm house projects.

 

The old master bathroom floor tiles came up,



 

 

{they were blue too} 

 

and down went the new.

 

 

  The door refurbishing project came out of its long hiatus,
 

 

and a set of good old fashioned parlor doors, found in the barn returned home.
 

 

One of them by way of a brief career as a cold frame.

 

 

It wasn't until we found the second door and did bit of house detective work that we discovered their original place and purpose.

Down came the cold frame immediately!

 

All it took was a good scrubbing and some paint.

They look charming and serve to keep the heat from the fireplace in the living room instead of escaping up the foyer stairwell.

 

Much better.
