Our BRIGHT Front Door

We once had a red door.

By once, I mean this afternoon.

We also had brass hardware. Red and gold have never been my favorite color combination.

We decided that this needed to change. Not only was it boring and old, but it was poorly painted (shocker) and sticking to the frame.

We had a lot of extra paint left over from the master bedroom accent wall; Blue Agave by BEHR.

And since we're both down for saving money, we decided we could deal with a light turquoise door.

I primed it out first using Kilz.

And this is how it turned out.

We also changed all of the hardware to brushed nickel.

From the street it looks SO much better.

The obligatory before and after:

The only problem with this little project is the fact that we just used a flat sheen to paint our front door. Not ideal, but we will figure out how to deal with this later.
