I’ve often seen Thursday Doors posts in my Reader, but this is my first submission: the floral doorway of a woman’s clothes shop. You wouldn’t expect me to walk past this without taking a picture, would you?
The quirky shop façade sets the tone for what you’ll find inside. Saint Claude Social Club sources vintage clothing and a range of accessories, showcasing artists around the world. If you’re curious to find out more, the street address is 1933 Sophie Wright Place, New Orleans, Louisiana or you can check out Saint Claude Social Club on Facebook.
Thursday Doors is a fun challenge, but in this week’s thoughtfully written post, Norm commemorates the people who lost their lives or have been affected by the recent terrorist attack in his country. He’s suggesting that we share some of the beauty in this world in response to the ugliness.


I love how that yellow pops off the dark background. And the artwork is beautiful. Great find! 🙂
I did a double-take when I saw it – definitely one of those stop-the-car-I-want-to-get-out moments!
I love the colours here!!
Me too – they’re bold and the black background makes them jump.
Great Door! and Welcome to Thursday Doors!!!
Thank you!
That is some door!!!
It’s beautifully painted isn’t it? I love the stylised elements too.
Can’t imagine passing up this door. It screams to be photographed and please enter!
I looked to see if there are lots more pictures online, as I thought the same, but it looks like the artwork may be a fairly recent addition.
Perfect submission. 🙂
Thanks Judy.
Yes indeed that one pops. Excellent choice 🙂
You have gathered a warm community of Norm’s Doorsers – it only takes one post to see that!
Beautiful first entry. Welcome to Thursday Doors!
Thank you, Manja.
This is exciting. I’ve been following a blogger with amazing doors and have been awed by her eye for form and color. Now I will have your eye too! I can’t wait to see how many more doors you can wed to botany.
I have more pictures of flower covered walls than doors.
Beautiful, decorative doorway. Lovely choice for your first post. Looking forward to more.
Thanks Jean.
What a marvelous and colorful first entry, Susan! Great to see you here and welcome.

It’s nice to find such a welcoming group of bloggers. I haven’t been taking too many door pictures, but will have to try to up my game!
It’s definitely a good group. You’ll have fun as well as the fun of looking for doors.
Bird of Paradise over the door? I keep miss your posts. You must be way far down in my reader, girl. I guess I ought to change my delivery for you!
Bird of Paradise seems the ideal motif for a clothes shop – elegant, exotic and colourful.
