A Lucky Lucketts Find

When you walk into our house you'll see my latest foyer display. No new finds here.
 
 
 
Turn and look left into the living room and you'll see this little vignette with a recent horse acquisition. But that's not my lucky Lucketts find--it's from an estate sale.
 
 
 
 
 
Look on the coffee table and you'll see this lavender I picked up at Lucketts.
 
 
But that's not my lucky find.
 
Look right and what do you see?
 
 
 
 
Yep.  Another door! 
 
Now if you've read this blog you know I have a thing for old doors.  I have one in the family room, which I love.
 
 
 
But as much as I love the architectural element they bring into our boring 1980's house, I thought I was okay for doors and shutters.  I have the door in the family room, shutters leading into the living room and out of the dining room--I thought I was good.
 
Until I saw this one.
 
 
 
I had to have it.
 
 
 
The white chippy paint.  The many panes.  The hardware.
 
 
 
It made my heart sing!
 
So it came home with me, and is living in the living room.  It might go somewhere else in the future, but I'm kind of liking it there for now.
 
 
 
But here's the best part.
 
I didn't find just one door at Lucketts--I found two!  Another vintage, chippy door with soul and character.  It's going into my booth for display, and I'll show you when I get moved into my new space and all set up.
 
Two doors!  Cue the happy dance! Gotta love Lucketts!
 
P.S. if you missed it, here's the link to a post I recently did on all the ways you can repurpose old doors.  If you find one, snap it up! Or ... give me a call :-)


BTW, I'd love it if you'd "Like" Mr. P's Emporium's Facebook page!

  5. Lucky you!! Not one but two!!!! Love old doors too. In fact you just gave me an idea of what to do with my parents old wood screen door that was originally on their farmhouse when they bought it in the 50's. I have one corner left, I'm putting it there tomorrow!!
    Yippee, I've been moving that poor thing all over LOL
