Doorknobs, anyone?

We are back from our trip to Colorado. We got lost in northern Utah which wasn't a state we had actually planned on visiting. Anyway, we're back, we're done with our week of VBS and ready to settle down to a school routine.

One of the things I have found interesting in this house are the doorknobs. The doorknobs are fairly flat in front and these almost all have those fancy things behind them which may be called escutchions. Anyway, except for our blatently new doors, all the doors have one of these ornate things. Mostly of them look like this, just a little scrollwork at the top. Because these are the most prevelant, I think they must have been the originals.


The second most common set up is this...I think that this was the cheaper replacement used when the originals had to be replaced for whatever reason.

Here are the other types to be found in our house.




Well, there is more than you ever wanted to know about the doorknobs in our house!
