Is there anything that says "fresh air" more than French doors that open onto a lovely outdoor setting? I think not! I love French doors and have never lived in a home that has had them. Yet.
There are a few homes I visit frequently where a sliding glass door leads from a formal room to the garden. I so want to see French doors in place of those sliders!
No screens accompany French windows that are wide open. Just clean air, a bright day, and, if it's this time of year, the promise of spring.
To see what others are loving this week, but sure to visit Julia at Hooked on Houses.

Oh, those are delightful! I definitely agree that they need to replace sliders wherever possible.

Love these pictures! Makes me ache for Spring time when my windows are wide open. Can't wait, it has GOT to be coming soon!
