It is a personal preference of mine, but if the doors will not have any sort of covering I think the muntins 'warm them up' and add a little interest and detail. If they are going to have a blind or a shade it gets a little 'busy' for me. Since your house is going to be country in style I would go with the muntins, the plain glass feels more contemporary in style. HTH

I think the fact that all those old leaves started going at once freaked me out a little (though it does make sense- I planted all the seeds at the same time, so the vines are all the same age). I've got an organic veggie fertilizer which is 4-5-3, or I've got some stronger, more specific stuff (one is blood meal with 13-0-0 and the other is bone meal with 2-14-0). I guess if the leaves are yellow due to lack of fertilizing, they'd probably need either the veggie fertilizer or the blood meal for the nitrogen.

Of course, choosing art is a personal thing. Speaking as an artist/sculptor, #1_ I would never stop to look at, it just says "landscape." #2_I would stop to look further into, asking myself "what is going on with this landscape?" #2 sparks a conversation, has movement and the colors give it more life. IMO

@Janice Maxwell, please don't paint your front door brown. The red is so wonderful on your house. As far as hardware on the house and shed, go with whatever color you like the best. For myself, I prefer the Satin Nickle, but that is me. If you prefer the Venetian Bronze, keep that.
