two doors down

June 20, 2011 by Mrs. Jones Admin

 

a tale of two beautiful and very different homes, two blocks apart, occupied by two lovely friends…both requested a dragged glaze treatment for their front doors.  mrs. jones was only too happy to mix up a little something, tying in to the trim color for each one, and oblige.  here are the befores:

and the afters, with some details:

(this one, the glaze a bit cooler, with more raw umber.)

(and for this one, a little more burnt umber, to warm it up.)
