Barn Door Reveal

Well, I finally made a decision about my "Barn Door".  
Thank You so much  for all the your wonderful opinions, comments and emails from my "Opinions" post Here
I did decide I will keep it by the front door.  I had my hubby help me set it up "temporarily", so I could decorate it and leave it for a while to see if I liked it... well, I LOVE it there!  Every time I walk up on the front porch and see it, it just makes me  happy.
We figured out a way to secure it without attaching it to the house... so if I decide later that I'm tired of it and want to put it somewhere else, then it won't be a problem to move it :)  But for now.... I Just LOVE IT!  right
 where it is! 

The "Welcome" was cut using my Cricut.   (It's currently just paper.... I need to get some more black vinyl.)  I'm thinking that it needs something else on either side, but I cant decide what.  Any ideas?

I made these little boxes a few years ago from some OLD barn wood that I brought back from Montana.  I originally had other plans for them.... That project hasn't materialized yet, so I decided that one of them would work perfect as a little "Planter Box" on the door.  :)  These two little begonias are just perfect for now :)

 This little red wagon filled with Bacopa, and  this cute little lantern finish off the look perfectly for the late summer decor.   

I can already envision how it's going to look decorated for the different seasons and Holidays.  I can't wait!!!
Banners across the opening,  Christmas Greens and ornaments in the planter box......  



Ta Da!!!!    What do you think?  :) 
I love your comments, so let me know what YOU think :)
