Split gateway......

going downstairs.
I believe you dear readers know by now, that I'm a slow doer.
Still my determination is just as strong as this iron gate! 
 
My truly beloved french antique find, bought many years ago,
 has finally been tranformed and split into two shutters
for the stairs leading up/down to my workshop.
I'm so fortunate to have the most wonderful and skilful blacksmith in
my team of craftsmen, we've been working together for a couple of days,
trying to figure out the best way to do this.
 Made-to-measure doesn't come prefabricated!
He's put his heart into this wicked idea of mine and
 I'm so grateful for his brilliant solutions!!!
My perservering plans are in progress, the next will be 
some work in reinforced concrete.
It's September and normally the beginning of fall should be 
crispy and chilly but the weather is absolutely gorgeous here 
in Stockholm,  the breeze is warm and the sky is bluer than blue!

Thanks!
