Hey! Cheer Up!


As you can imagine, I am always on the look-out for doors, but for some reason I tend to be immediately attracted to doors that are made of wood...especially wood that isn't painted.


When I saw this door and went up close to it, I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the faces on it. They don't look terribly happy, but they do provoke one to smile due to their expressions!


I can't say what epoque this door is, but it is a rather interesting mixture of carvings...geometric, floral and figurative..at least the handle is simple and sober.

A Never-ending Job!


Today's door is dedicated to people who go back to work on Monday after having the weekend off. Why? Well, because this is a door where every day is Monday because the people here never leave the job.


I know, from a distance it's hard to tell much about this door other than the obvious: it's modern and metallic. Now, take a closer look...



Yep, the 'decoration' on the door is made up of fist-sized (a man's fist, not my little puny hand) heads turned in different directions. Behind this door is a loading dock, but even when work isn't going on there, the heads on the door are always at work!!
