So...which makes more sense?

Hmmmm...to use things you have on hand already--doors, doorknobs, hinges, beadboard, etc.--or to buy new, more shedlike ones? (I know, no real need to answer that, just finding it odd that recycling elements elevates a project from one level to another. )

The small door, the French doors (which will let me start seedlings away from the hungry kittehs if so moved), and both windows are recycled. Ditto the hinges, and doorknobs, some of which are "new" (but not to us) and some old. Some of the plywood is re-purposed. Some of the insulation will be, as well. Seems like a good idea to me...

And more deciding...

The front of the shed is mostly stained...won't be using that stain on the deck or French doors, though. Not wild about how orange it is (the original sample was less so, and more transparent...different brand, I think), and hoping it will mellow.
We sure don't need more of it.

Meanwhile, what to do about the French doors?? I really like natural wood, though the other door and the two windows have white trim.

So I did a quick-and-dirty Photoshop Elements tweak to see how white would look there too. Good, I think, but not quite as elegant. (OK, I know, "elegant shed" is a bit of an oxymoron. So sue me!) The white shows more how much we had to cut off the bottom of the doors to make them fit, too...

Doesn't have to be decided right this second, anyway...
