A little color

One of the little projects on our to-do list (from here) was updating the front door with a new coat of paint. The original door color was red (we love red) but with a slightly recessed entry way and the surrounding red brick, our front door blended into the house in a not-so-good way.

See?


We considered painting the door a brighter red but eventually decided we wanted more contrast. We picked up a few paint samples and eventually decided on a Behr color that is a mix of blue, green, and gray. It's a big change but we both love it!

BTW - painting a door is not that easy - 3 coats and a lot of attention to detail later resulted in this new color.

Oh, and Gracie was a big help when the husband needed someone to hold his shirt!
