Paint color for my front door
Comments (27)Totally agree to paint alcove same as the existing trim color. The brown trim must go lol I love a blue door and there's such a beautiful range from a lovely turquoise, periwinkle, to a denim color etc. I think it needs to be a color light and bright enough to stand out in the darkness of the alcove. I would paint the trim that was brown a very light color even white or a very light version of the taupe trim on the rest of the house. It needs to be seen and as dark as it is in there it's not standing out. Or if you go with a color for the door make that trim a very diluted version of that paint...See MoreWhat color is my front door??
Comments (38)We must be in different areas. Our Certainteed color options don’t have Moire Black. 😔 I keep leaning towards their Thunderstorm Grey. I loved your comment about people stopping because that’s literally how we found that color. A house we live in the next town over has it. It’s gorgeous anytime of day. ❤️ Thankfully our state considers construction essential. We have been living with my parents since October with the plan to build this spring. Our family of 5 is going to lose their minds if we don’t at least see some progress. The crews we’ve encountered have all been mindful of social distancing or wearing masks. It has been hard to pick out plumbing and electrical fixtures online. So far what has come in I’m still in love with once I see it in person. 😆...See MoreWhat colour for my front door?
Comments (22)Thank you, Beth H,. for your comments. Yes, good point about the bareness of the porch; however, we still have not finished with freezing temperatures here! I think tomorrow is the last day. (It snowed two days last week!) Someone else suggested staining or treating the deck as well. Now that I look at the "weathered" complexion of the deck, it does look a little sad! I was worried that staining the deck would make it too obvious and flashy, rather than natural, but I have used wool oils before in other applications and am a fan. So there's another project.:o) What colour is that navy blue you posted on my front door? Since I'm now planning on covering the cushions with a more natural neutral colour, I'm not concerned about their current rusty colour. And I do like that blue!...See MoreWhat color for my front door? Storm door?
Comments (1)I think a coral in a glossy finish would look nice. I like storm doors for the extra protection the give, even with a porch. I would get the same color mixed for metal paint. The blue posts and railing is distracting. White would be so much better. I would paint the porch deck a classic light gray and the porch ceiling haint blue - a blue like the railing is now. Think of doing the upper portion in a hunter green, the siding and the all the trim in white. Here is a house all in hunter green. Here is a house that shows how stunning hunter green looks over white....See MoreKelley Best
