Carriage House for Less

I swear I must have been born in another place or time. I love old things. I love the look of an old carriage house.  Really, I love the look of most old homes because they have detail, or character.  You might find specialty hardware on shutters, doors and windows. It is like finishing a great outfit with the proper jewelry.

So when we needed to replace our garage doors, I wanted to have doors with characters. Well, truth be told, character is expensive.  Fancy door hardware was a lot extra if I opted for the iron detail I had my mind set on.  Hubby said fancy doors and trims weren’t in the budget.

But the problem was solved when I found Coach House Accents.  This DIY lover’s friend offers an array of options to add character and charm for little money. The high quality resin made door hardware adds a lot to any garage facade. They even make “faux” window decals. So don’t settle for boring doors, when you have Coach House Accents to give you a great look for less.
