My New "Old" Front Door

[jimmyjoe]

My neighbor did some remolding and gave me his old front door. I had to add an inch to the bottom, cut a quarter inch off the side and square up the top to get it to fit. My wife has this cowboy theme going on so she wanted the door painted red with cowboy boots in the glass. I took out the old glass and made two stained glass panels to fit the openings. Here is my new "old" door..

Really nice door, also like the two different colors.
The Horror shows I've seen when some remodel, taking out beautiful lead stained glass, big heavy oak doors with 10 layers of paint, then replacing with modern cheap junk. I like the old stuff.

You did a great job. Looks fantastic and the old door gets a new lease on life.

Very nice work, even with the oversight.
