Kitchen & Dining Room Swing Door

Here is our new swing door for the ding room and kitchen. It has been a long time in comming to get one of these. The house origionally had one many years ago. I uncovered the origional mounting holes and divots left in the wood making it easy to mount. The heavy forged brass push plate was the final touch of this doors character.

The kitchen side shows the detail of the swing pivot spring hinge on the bottom left corner of the door. I orded a push plate in oil bronze finish and should arrive any day.

Mudroom

I finally got our mudroom ready for use. I used the same color scheme as the kitchen which is the next room over.

The beadboard celing had alot of flaking paint that had to be hand sanded off before I primered and painted it. I am happy with the way it turned out.

I decided to have a built-in ironing board which I felt was appropriate. This is where the door origionally was entering the back storage room (now the pantry). I had to fabricate new shiplap siding board to duplicate the left side of the ironing board.

Here is what the ironing board looks like.
