What color should I paint my front door?
Comments (42)OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!! Thank you, all of you!!!! My son borrowed my computer for the evening, so I missed the spectacular unfolding of all of those door colors. I absolutely LOVE looking at the different colors. Each one changes the whole look of the house so much. What a wonderful resource you all are. I am humbled, thank you. At first glance I am loving the plummy-grey brown. It satisfies my urge for a red door, while incorporating the beige of the house and the brown shutters AND the grey roof. Brilliant. Oakleyok, you suggested a wreath. Great minds! I had a lovely spring wreath on the door, but the birds decided they wanted to use it for nesting material. We were treated to a constant scrabbling noise as they tried to remove the twigs from the wreath -- so I had to temporarily take it down. Right now it's hanging on the INSIDE of the door. Thanks again, everyone! I will tell you what we decide, and then post more photos later. -- Maureen...See MoreWhat color should I paint my front door?

Comments (7)I would consider something in either a shade of blue that you could distinctly tell is blue (pianolady007 has a really good point) from the street. Or another color but definitely a 'color'. I don't care for th ewhite because it looks to 'choppy' w/ the dark trim, medium tone house and white window casings. Any chance you can beef up the door surround trim to really make the door a focal point? right now it seems to hold the sme importance as the windows and I always think that your door should be the primary focal point....See MoreWhat color should we paint our front door?
