I think it looks pretty decent too. <br /><br />The problem with a handle is it needs to be sturdy enough for me to lift up a REALLY heavy door. The knob stays in one place, so I can lift, knowing the thing will stay in my hand and not move. If I remove the doorknob and and drill in separate handles, then I have a hole where the doorknob was. If I put in a door handle (http://img.diytrade.com/cdimg/598121/4276715/0/1189438102/Door_handle.jpg), then it may not be so sturdy when I go to lift up the door. <br /><br />What I need is this type of door handle/knob. The hole would be covered, and man, that looks sturdy (and expensive...)!! http://1912bungalow.com/imgdir/Outside_Handle02-thumb.jpg<br /><br />But you get me thinking! I will keep an eye out for something that could work.Jessikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001039130875430846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160110128502001167.post-69841621379228152922010-05-07T12:14:10.296-07:002010-05-07T12:14:10.296-07:00I think it could look good painted OR not painted....I think it could look good painted OR not painted. I actually think really like the way it turned out! How about replacing the doorknob with a handle, though?<br /><br />KellyKellyMellyBoBellyBananaFannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09534148371241803735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160110128502001167.post-74538157038337715932010-05-07T11:37:05.162-07:002010-05-07T11:37:05.162-07:00Thanks Sonja!

It's pretty heavy, so using a window instead could be a good thing-- that's what my neighbor has. <br /><br />Now to have a living roof somewhere. I love yours!Jessikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001039130875430846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1160110128502001167.post-80578287455906872822010-05-07T11:29:32.743-07:002010-05-07T11:29:32.743-07:00Wow, I am so impressed by this project - never tho...Wow, I am so impressed by this project - never thought about using a door. It looks really great. I'm got a giant old window that I was thinking about converting but it has several problems, one being that it doesn't open. I'm getting out the power tools today though so we'll see how it goes...Sonjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07991225701647192076noreply@blogger.com
