I changed the kit's double door to a single door with a transom window. I built the new frame from 3/8" x 3/16" and 3/8" x 1/8" strip wood, just as I had done for the Brownstone door, adding 1/16" by 1/16" strip wood to keep the drafts out. The door color is Plantation Pine by Americana, and the frame is Warm White, also by Americana. I used Opryland door hardware and made the kickplates from heavy paper. I painted the paper antique bronze and added nail detailing. The door lamp is a black coach wall sconce.

The oval doormat is from Arjen Spinhoven Miniaturen. The porch soffit and floor boards are skinny sticks, with the soffit painted French Blue by Folk Art. The gumball dispenser is from Hobby Lobby. The birdhouse was made using a kit from Twilla's Tiny Treasures, purchased at one of the local shows.
