...here's a before picture of the front door...
...masked and ready to paint...
...getting started - you can see we finally decided on the peacock blue...
...this is after 2 coats of paint - I may still do a third...
...with our new storm door...
...I really love the front of the house so much more now...
I love it, it's a great pop of color! It'll pop especially well when everything else is covered with snow!
ReplyDeleteThat pretty door looks like you run through the house right into that beautiful blue sky!
ReplyDeleteReally looks nice. How does the Man like it? MOM
ReplyDeleteAt second glance, the masking tape looks the same color as the paint. Is it? MOM
ReplyDeleteyeah, nice to have that little flash of color - it says "somebody cool lives here!"
ReplyDeletelove, k
I really like the color choice!
ReplyDeleteGreat color.
ReplyDeleteLoving the Peacock Blue! It's so all-seasons, isn't it? Perfect eye-catcher for the front of the house.
ReplyDeleteThat color blue is just perfect!
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteThat turned out so pretty.I love when a smallish project yields such big results.
ReplyDeleteThe new door color looks great! I think it really livens up the house and Karen is right...it definitely screams cool.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love the newly painted blue front door and new glass front door as well! How fun. My husband about croaked when I suggested painting our front door a mauve color... he just doesn't get it! :) The peacock blue was a great choice!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt never ceases to amaze me just how much difference something quite small can make such a big difference.
ReplyDeleteFixing the porch and the lovely splash of blue do really lift the front.
Pardon the gobbledygook first sentence!
ReplyDeleteone of my favorite colors! looks great :)
ReplyDeleteI love the blue door. Very inviting!
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying that bright blue. It will be great all year long (bright in the dark fall and winter, and bright matching the colors of spring and summer). xo Angela
ReplyDeleteI love that your front door is a color! It really pops out like "welcome!!"
ReplyDeleteHurray!!!! You have your blue door! I'm so happy for you and it looks really nice.
ReplyDeletexo
What a beautiful colour!
ReplyDeleteI love it!!! So charming, makes the outside seem more warm and inviting somehow. I would say, since you had such a strong intuitive urge on this one, there was no way it could have been wrong. I think I would smile every time I came home and saw it!
