Where Did I Get My Door Box?
I receive so many comments asking me where I got my door box. So I thought I would answer the question here in my sidebar. I got my door box at The Olde Homestead in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. The lady who makes the door boxes is Tracie Hamler. She and her husband make them. They are wonderful door boxes and you will be very pleased with the quality. You can visit Tracie's website by clicking the picture of my door box.
