I recently had a reader ask me if I have a favorite color for painting a front door. I was embarrassed to admit I'd never given it any thought. But it inspired me to go back and take a look.

Do you see a theme?!! 😂. I obviously love blue! It works well with white houses and cream houses. But it was fun to see some goldenrod doors and a couple of red and black ones as well. And the green door is still one of my favorites.

We've reached the point on the new project that I need to pick a door color. So I guess it won't come as a surprise that I'm thinking about blue! I have several samples that I've tried. Do you have a favorite? (BTW - this is a temporary door, the new one with glass is safely stored away until all the trades are finished). I might go ahead and paint the temporary door the winner shade of blue, so we can really try it out while we wait for the house to be finished!
1 or 6!
ReplyDeleteI really 3 with your siding color.
ReplyDeleteSix!
ReplyDelete3 or 6. Everything else looks too dark or muddy.
ReplyDelete1. But they're all great.
ReplyDeleteI like #6
ReplyDelete#3
ReplyDeleteI tend to like brighter colors, so 6 would be the first choice. However, 7 would be a fantastic dark contrast and would make super colorful landscaping especially beautiful.
ReplyDelete6... or 3
ReplyDelete#6!
ReplyDeleteSix for the win! 😊
ReplyDeleteI am really drawn to #3.
ReplyDeletewhat door manufacturer and style did you use? I need a new front door. :-)
ReplyDeleteNo. 6 is my winner. Lighter and brighter.
ReplyDelete6!
