Painted Door

With not having a whole lot of money for a good makeover I have been looking for ways to make an impact without much cost. This door used to be white.



I painted it black and LOVE the way it pops.

    Thanks for your comments on my blog makover. I am enjoying the simple look. As for the labels, when I added the labels element I chose the cloud format. They automatically show up different sizes. Easy enough huh?!! Because I changed the colors of my blog I also had to go in and changed some of the html codes to the title, link and posts colors. If you don't know how to do that I would be happy to help you out. I don't know much but just enough to change things up a bit. I think I might do a tutorial on my blog on how I did it. One last thing, be sure to have a practice blog to make all of the changes on. Then you can just transfer it to your current blog. Have a wonderful day!!

    Maybe we should start an email convo? :-) I used to use Flickr to make my pics larger but when I just updated my blog I found out that they have a new format and you can enlarge each picture as you upload it to your blog! I had been missing out. So much easier than the additional step of Flickr. Email me heart4six@yahoo.com

    It really does make such a difference. I think your photos look like they should be in a magazine!

    I stumbled upon your blog and I love it! I am in the same boat and dream of the day when I have uber money to throw down on a crazy renovation. But you definitely proved that little details can make a big difference.

    Your house is so cute!!

    great color POP! Just came upon your blog via another blog, you know how that goes. I'm looking forward to learning more about homeschooling. I have some decisions this year to make with my oldest turning 5. I have a 3 year old and a baby as well. Thanks for taking the time to share about your views and suggestions you may have.
    God be near you today and give you STRENGTH for the journey!!

    You should go on America's Got Talent. I don't know if they have a door category, but they should. You have vision and skillz. Looks great.
