Front Door Frame Project

I love our double-glass front door. Since it makes such a statement, I wanted the interior of the door frame to have bulkier moulding, like this Victorian door frame from this blog: http://vicariouslyvictorian.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html.






So I asked my husband to help me to recreate this look. We bought a 1" x 4" piece of wood, as well as a piece of crown moulding to go on top of it.

Along with the finished crown moulding on the ceiling, I think this door moulding is the extra oomph our front door needed. I am very pleased with the results!
