{Hello!: A Year Of Doors} Quick Update

Just a quick little update here.... while I'm waiting to get stuff that I've ordered that I need in order to finish May, and still haven't gotten the light blue cardstock to use for January's siding yet (although I did start working on January and there is a little bit of a sneak peek picture in this post), I did get the tiny door knobs and handles I ordered in the mail yesterday so now all the doors have knobs/handles!
May's door knob is painted copper to match the mail slot

March has a gold toned doorknob

And February's is also gold, but a handle rather than a knob

And here's a quick shot of the doors so far in their display piece... they don't all have all their accessories in this picture though since they have yet to be permanently installed in the display and some of the accessories can't get glued on until after that happens. (April didn't get a close up of it's doorknob because it's always had one... it was molded onto the door itself since I used a pre-made plastic door for April). This is also the little sneak peek of January I promised up there in the top compartment. (Which, this wasn't really intentional, but the glare on the door kind of helps keep from giving too much of the door away ahead of time HAHAHA)

I did also just check the tracking on the scale pebbles I'm waiting for for the paths for May's landscaping that was not supposed to be here 'til Friday and now it's coming today instead , and did also test out an idea for ground cover "plantings" for the non gravel areas of the yard so I could have May finished as early as tomorrow, but until I actually see the pebbles and see if they are really what I want (it was hard to tell on a picture on an ebay listing lol) I can't be sure that I won't have to figure something else out or how quickly/easily it will all come together. Lol. But I'm hoping at least by the end of the week. And my state is supposed to start phased reopening on Friday, so maybe I'll be able to comfortably go to Hobby Lobby and get that cardstock soon too and be all caught up (except for December, but since I technically started that a year early anyway as long as it gets done by this December I'm not going to consider it "behind").  I'm also, while waiting to be able to finish May and January, trying to make sure I have everything I need for June, July, and maybe August as well since I should be back to by early June and will probably be doing those months as I intended the project to be.... weekend projects...  Of course I'm sure as I work on them I'll come up with other things I need/want to add to them and possibly need different supplies, but also hopefully by then I'll be able to run to the craft store when I need something.
