Still diving into my archives. One of the fun things about Storybook Style architecture is the way doors are often tucked onto the side of an extrusion or deep in a recess. Nevertheless, I do assure you that these houses do have doors.
Thursday Doors is the brainchild of Norm Frampton, photographer extraordinaire. Visit his site, enjoy his wonderful photographs of actual doors, follow his instructions, and enter a whole world of doors.
A WRITING PROMPT FROM ME TO YOU: Write about a hidden door.

February 20, 2020 at 9:08amI’m so glad! I’m writing a series of mysteries set in a Storybook neighborhood, just because it gives me an excuse to look at pictures of Storybook Style architecture and call it “research”. LOL

February 20, 2020 at 2:36pmI wonder why doors are hidden on this style of home. They’re built to grab your attention, then hide the door? Makes little sense to me. Nice photos, though.

Makes me want to march up the walk, ring the bell, and invite myself in for a tour – not that I’d actually do it, but I want to 😉
