Immediate Success!

Oh my stars, what luck! I just found the website for Crestview Doors in Austin (nearly local!) and they actually sell kits to make a blank canvas door mid-century appropriate. I've seen a lot of these designs in my neighborhood, but not sure yet if they're the right style for my house. I'll have to review their offerings in more depth after I do some more comparisons.

Beginnings

Last week I went out for a run in my neighborhood. Although slowly being encroached upon by the McMansion blight, many of the homes retain their mid-century charm. I especially noted the myriad door styles and began to feel the green demon rise within. Compared to my scuffed, peeling, contractor grade steel door some of these doors were practically works of art! So the idea was born to document these time capsules while they're still around - hence this blog. I'll post pictures of each as I discover them, and if you're reading this and have information on the make or model or history of the door's style, please let me know via comment!
