Thanks for the nice words. Now for your questions. The Lanterns are Dietz Red, but they look sort of pink in the pictures. I made the door with the stained glass. It's really easy. Let me know if you want more info on that. You are on LogeHomeU. It's this website.

If you'd send me pictures of yours, I'd be appreciative! Thanks Rita.

I am out of every loop when it comes to technological savvy of any sort
