Beauty...

I posted a view of this house/porch the other day over here at Pics & Pieces...thought I would show this shot where I zoomed in on some of the appeal of the place. Such intricate work...I wonder how long it has been there and what tools were used to make this decorative trim.

  1. When ever I see things like this I always wonder how they made it, especially on the ones that are really fancy.

  3. We have houses like this around here, and they are so cool. And see how you even captured the shadow of the lacy work? Kind of looks like a gingerbread house. I would like to know the name of this style.

    with All the old buildings with the intricate scroll work I have seen over the years, I have never thought about what tools were used.
