Exhausting first week of school, so I didn’t do much tonight except dream and plan. One thing I decided was that since the only way we will be looking at the entrance hall will be through the front door, we would be able to see more easily if I added a transom and some sidelights. So I started cutting out the shapes for the sidelights.

• 

These will be on each side of the front door.

• 

Then I cut some trim which I will need to stain the same color as the trim around the doors.

• 

And cut out the transom.

• 

Then I doodled a bit to figure out what designs to add to the windows. Came up with something somewhat inspired by the design on the doors.

• 

Placed some bricks on top for the full effect.

• 

Not sure I like the designs on the sidelights. But I like the one in the transom.

• 

Inserted the door with the cut openings into the house.

• 

So we should be able to see the entrance hall through the sidelights…

• 

…and through the windows in the doors.

• 

That’s it for tonight. Sleep well.
