Lighter or darker depends on what you do with the rest of the space……..🌀💚🌀 Everything is looking very good!

Your kitchen area needs the brightness. Just clear coat that wonderful wood and leave it natural…..

That door looks fabulous. W E L L DONE Steve!

You‘re a real inspiration of everything is possible and never a matter of age. Keep up the good job. Greetings from Austria👏

Light colors reflect light better than darker colors. If you paint the door, then match the color of your mortar rather than the darker stones. Good progress!

I would suggest navy blue for the interior color of the door. This color would match beautifully with light blue.👍😉👍

Cindy , any construction contractor or someone that knows how to install wood stoves and chimney.

I'd either stain or paint the inside of the door. It would look lovely with a darker stain or a bright colour.

Thanks

Bright blue on my other tiny house 🤗

Light wood for the inside
My metal door took 3 coats
I did pale pink🤗❤️

I love the wood as is. That said, if you're going to pull it it'll get darker anyway. You could consider doing that first and, if you don't like it, you can always darken it more afterwards.

Door looks amazing! 😄

Your door looks great. I think a lighter oil or varnish looks good & like others have said makes the room lighter. Your preference is more important though. Can't wait to see your bathroom closed in. Winter is coming. I'm glad you have a good source of income, plus it keeps the brain young!

HELLO CINDY…I WOULD EITHER LINSEED OIL IT OR STAIN IT DARKER…YOU MIGHT STAIN IT A GREY COLOR TO GO WITH THE GRANITE STONE INTERIOR…I LOVE THAT YOU ARE KEEPING THE METAL DOOR & I LIKE THAT GLASS INSERT…IT'S YOUR DOOR, BLUE IS NOT MY BAG!…ALL THE BEST…🙏🏻;)

One of your subscribers called you “Lady Cindy” I love that! ❤

I don’t understand what your job is. Do you teach a subject or are you an educational consultant? Also, curious about the window you have that looks into the kitchen. Is it a clear window or did you block it? Love your shows, you are an inspiration to me.

Do not stain darker. Leave it lighter, sand and1 clear stain. Looking so nice Cindy.

Door looks amazing and the Indian looked even better! Great video cindy!

Ηello ..!!!No dont paint or varnish this door.The pine will get darker with the time and also is good color connected with the wall rock.Of course the dessision is yours .

Can you're son still watchh you on his phone? I love the blue door!!!!

Hi Cindy, your doing a great job, look how much you have achieved. You should be proud of yourself. Your so fortunate that you've got a good support group and such nice volunteers. Slow but sure steady pace and you'll get there.

I'm retiring hopefully next year and I'd love to come and help you . I'm sure others would come too if you need help. There are more good and kind people in this world than we think 🤔 and you're volunteers a testament to that. 🙏

Anyway don't feel down hearted your doing great…and looking great!!

All the best.

Oh wow! Love the insulated door, thanks Steve. I'm excitedly looking forward to the bottle wall- loads of beautiful light. Any chance of a clear 'window' section, to capture the view? Well done you, working on the farm, with so little time, during teaching breaks. Yip, the juggler 🤗🥰

Love the blue door. As a retired teacher from 49 years in private schools in Louisiana, I am very interested in your “retirement “ job. Are you a consultant, a coach, or perhaps an evaluator? At 77 I’m not interested in going back to work, but I think the life you have made is remarkable.

Wow, getting lots of renovations done!! Everything is starting to come together!! Should be nice an cozy this winter!!

The wood on the door looks good, Cindy! Definitely a second or even a third coat me thinks!?! Let’s hope it’s a better paint than the Dulux I used to decorate my front room- four coats! Ahhhhh😂
Have a good week! Laura 🐶🐶🌸

White wash is nice on pine

If you don’t stain it it will get dirty
