10 things~ my dad is teaching me.

It's time for Shimelle's 10 things, on the tenth of the month ~
My dad is on my mind these days, so my 10 things are things he is teaching me:
1. Pay it Forward  whenever I can~
2. Put my heart into it, even if I don't feel like it~
3. How awesome a "wink" can be
4. How awesome a "hug" can be
5. The comfort that comes from "quite" time~
6. I see it now~ Johnny Cash does rule !!!
7. A smile has new meaning~
8. Things that I think are easy are hard sometimes~
9. He knew what we needed before we did.
10. Be patient and wait on the Lord~

I love you, Dad!!

10 things~ doors!

It's time for Shimelle's, 10 things on the tenth of the month, so here we go~ thought I would show you how I use old doors in my home.  I will stop on a dime for an old door with vintage hardware on it!!! I'll explain as I go~
Old door painted to display Mercer Pottery on. Hubby built the awesome mantle out of mesquite wood, found on our place~

This is another old door that was spilt to make a place to hang stuff in the pantry~

Hubby made this piece out of old door pieces, for the grands to have a place to hang their ranch caps.  The knobs are old door knobs!  That could be my next 10 things~showing the door knobs:):)

This is one of the very first doors I re-purposed and it is still a favorite of mine.  This is a small door~I'm thinking for a water heater.

Another fave of mine~this door is by Firestone Food Freezer (brass emblem on the front) ~ I painted it and use it for all things, grand kids!  Side note, I paid $15 for this door , all other doors were given to me or we found them.

Two doors hinged together ( check out the hinges)  Used to display more Mercer Pottery.

This door I just love~tall and skinny, painted added vintage(re production) hooks and we hang our wet towels on it..

One door turned into swinging doors ( bathroom). Check out the knobs~

This is the headboard on our bed.  Three doors hinged together ( check out those hinges). Mounted to the frame of the bed and then we added reading lights ( has a toggle switch in the key hole of the door knob) very cool~hubby and my design!!

Old French doors headed to the junk yard.  They are mounted on the wall (behind our TV in or bedroom). We added vintage hardware to them.  I know this is 10 things, but one more:):);)

Not sure what this is, but it spoke to me. I paid $20 for it. I love to display seasonal items on it.  Fun idea~ just wanted to share!!
Thanks for stopping in~this blog hop is always a fun one.
