Barn Doors



So..... Barn Doors are all the Rage now. Love love love  them and not quite sure they are all really doors to a barn    But what I DO know ............they are bigger than life and so architecturally striking to the eye.  Just looky here

and this  Can't help it - It's how I roll :)


But my favorite so far is this Bright yellow sunshiny happy barn door paired with a warm gray.  

I love this barn door trend mainly because I spent so many happy days at the farm where my mother and her sisters grew up.  It was in a little town called Stony Point NC and my siblings and my cousins roamed and played all over the cow pastures there!  Living in the city now but my dream is in the country!  Working my way back slowly.   I'll get there someway somehow.  And yea - That barn still stands today although it no longer belongs to our family :(

  2. I love your barn door pictures! What a great style. The second blue photo is my favorite.

    I used really look forward to visiting my grandpa's dairy farm. Good luck with your quest back to the country. :)

  7. 4th pic: Chalkboard walls and a junky, scruffy barn door - heaven! My office just might need to get something like this in its redesign.

    Thanks for compiling all this wonderful-ness!!
