If you are planning to purchase a new door, consider choosing a model that features leaded glass inserts. These decorative doors give your home an elegant appearance and are especially pretty at night when interior lights shine through the glass panels.

Traditionally, door knockers were considered a guard against evil spirits who wished to enter your home. Today, however, an unusual door knocker is simply a great way to decorate the front door of your home. Look for these conversation pieces at thrift shops and antique stores.
