A few weeks ago, a friend posted this article on Facebook, and I thought it was a fun idea. I know I’ve posted about doors before, but I couldn’t resist exploring them again. The article reminded me how mesmerized I was by the antique doors I saw in Paris, so today’s post is full of beautiful French Art Nouveau doors.
I try to be good about attributing the photos I use, but this is one of those times where it was late and I wasn’t thinking, and I just stole photos willy-nilly from the internet. Sorry, internet. My bad.

Aren’t they fantastic? When Beloved and I were in Paris, we must have looked very strange going from building to building, exclaiming over the doors.

I must be partial to blue. That first one is beautiful…and then I liked all the rest, but especially the ones in blue.

I am a big blue fan, too. I have often said that if you paint a house blue, I will love it no matter what it looks like!

As someone who posts doors regularly, I feel it’s a shame you didn’t equip them with photographers. I try to fly below the radar by taking and posting photos that are just shy of repost-worthy. 😀 Hm… but I know! I shall make it my goal to take such great door photos that you’ll be forced to make a post entirely of my doors, hihi.
This is just for good fun, I love your collection! Also I’m terribly behind your posts. Will come abreast one day, I hope.

Doll, if you have a collection of door (or other) photos you want me to look at, I’d be delighted!

That I want you to look at! Oh! I’ve been blogging for three years or so, posting doors for the last two years every Thursday. That’s a LOT of them. Here is just a little selection.

But your posts are glamorous. I’m not aspiring to be featured by you! That was just a fun thing to say. 😀 Thanks for looking anyway.

I’m glad you like them, Donna. 🙂 This is all thanks to Norm Frampton who has been hosting his Thursday Doors challenge for the third year (at least):

While the big, grand ones are cool, I am also really intrigued by the smaller doors. They always make me thing something magical must be behind them!

So gorgeous! These properties definitely have doorstep appeal. And again I am reminded that I need to paint my front doors – if only the husband and I could agree on a colour.

Beloved has finally sort of agreed to let me paint our door pale mint when we get home. Can’t wait!

That sounds lovely. We have boring beige siding which limits the choices somewhat but we still can’t find something we both love. The previous owners had painted it black with white detailing. That has to go.

If they ever got around to filming an American Version of Being Erica (one of my favourites….and I love Erin Karpluk too) they could really use these doors to great effect.

I too am fascinated by doors and often take photos of them when I’m travelling, along with street lights.
