Dressed up doorway.....

We finally got around to cleaning, reshaping and painting a couple of architectural pieces we bought at the May Brimfield show into a pediment for above our doorway..

You may recall the two pieces once looked like this.

My thinking is that it could probably use a little something more - perhaps some sort of decorative piece in the middle....but for now, I'm more than content with the outcome.
