The good with the bad....

Ok, so there are a few things I actually love about the house. I try to avert my eyes from the brown smears in the bathroom and the little "chocolate sprinkles" (copyright Mr. Limestone) that the resident mice have left in the basement kitchen to see the good things.

The plan is to play up the good with the renovation.

So I present to you a very big reason why we picked THIS house:

Ta-da!

I love this doorknob. In fact, I love the door too.

Not impressed? Thats okay. Its not something most people would make a financial commitment on. I know, I have issues.

But its one of those things that just struck me and gave me a picture of what the house could be like after some blood sweat and tears go into it. Its one hot old lady of a doorknob to me.

Hopefully the house (and its shabby owners) will live up to her expectations.

I totally understand about the doorknob! I fell in love with the doors of my house before ever seeing the inside, and they're still my favorite thing about the house.

Love your blog!
