Front Door Upkeep: Home of the Heart Design

Linda's Front Door


​Let's talk about the front door. It tells a lot about your home, but even more about you. Are you sophisticated? Down home? Creative? Friendly? Can you tell something about my personality by my front door?

     Sometimes though, we neglect to take a closer look at our entry. If you saw spider webs hanging from the ceiling, or weeds growing up between the front steps, you might not be so dazzled with my door's beauty. Keeping our front porch tidy can be overlooked as we pursue our busy lives. As I vacuum my porch and around the door, I remember my mother sweeping our front walk every morning.  No, I don't do this chore every morning, but when I vacuum the entry ​​floor, I open the front door and vacuum the porch too. It takes only a few extra minutes, and I can be confident I won't be scaring away my visitors.
     Keep
ing our front door painted or vanished tells our visitor the interior is in good shape too, even if, on occasion, we hide our dirty pots and pans in the oven when unexpected guests arrive. But we would never be caught doing that, right?

From Home of the Heart, warmly yours,
Linda

    I loved writing about Meg Cary's interior design career in my romance, Home of the Heart. Meg worked on some pretty spectacular projects that I've only dreamed of. But my greatest pleasure has been exploring what's involved in creating one's personal Home of the Heart, both helping others as well as the evolution of my own home design. I'll be sharing with you what I've learned over the years as an interior designer.
