Door and Trim

The fluted doorway trim adds character and anticipation while going from room to room.

My sister-in-law was told by a friend to place passages from the Bible under the door frames into each room. She chose passages that had a special meaning to her and what the room would be used for. She used the following passages multiple times throughout the house.

Psalm 119:105 (master bedroom)  Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

Psalm 56:3 (master bedroom)  When I am afraid, I will trust in you.

Luke 6:37 (front door and bedroom #2) Forgive and you will be forgiven.

Mark 16:15 (elevator door and bedroom #3)  He said to them, “Go into the world and preach the good news to all creation.

Philemon 1:6 (study and hallway)  Pray that you may be active in sharing your faith, so that you will have a full understanding of every good thing we have in Christ.

Mathew 18:20 (dining room)  Where two or three come together in my name, then there am I with them.

John 14:27 (mudroom)  Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Proverbs 1:33 (kitchen)  But whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.

Proverbs 3:6 (elevator)  In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

Proverbs 9:11 (study)  For through me your days will be many, and years will be added to your life.

Timothy 4:4 (dining room)  For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving.

Headers Over Windows and Doors

I know this may be a little boring but I like to take pictures of the headers over the doors and windows. I do this because it allows me to see how tall and wide they are for window treatments. Most contractors don’t think about where the window treatments will be attached to the wall. If the header or a block is placed correctly then the homeowner would not have to use anchors and the window treatments will have a better chance of staying on the wall.
