Doors

The doors have been stained- they're drying and waiting for install.  I had a difficult time chosing between stain and paint for the doors. The trim is painted white, and I didn't know how stained doors would look framed in white. I couldn't find many pictures online of this particular combination. My gc seemed to like the idea of stain, and the birch doors were really pretty- I didn't want to cover them up with paint. Good wood seems to call for stain.  So that's what we went with. They look cool all lined up to dry. The doors for the lower level are a lighter stain- see picture to the left. Below are the darker stained bed and bath room doors for the main level, along with evidence of how they got to be that way. I continue to feel very grateful to all who are working on the house and I especially love the pictures that hold the beauty of their hard work.
