My Red Door

I love my Red Door. I love it when guests ask, "Where is the powder room", and I reply "The Red Door". The Red Door was salvaged from a garage sale that my good friend Auey had days before she migrated to the US. The door was not part of the sale but I offered to purchase it. The state of the door was repairable. We maintained the original color. We used automotive laquer paint to get the right red. The brass plate was black with years of dirt and after major elbow grease was able to get it to shine. Oh and did I mention that it is made of solid Yakal. It is so heavy that we used 4 heavy hinges to hold it up. Don't you just love that the door handle is in the middle. So different. My Red Door.
