I love the purple Martha Stewart! Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteI want my door in my new house to be green! Love the colors and definitions!
ReplyDeleteAfter researching yellow doors I thought for sure this would be my go to color, but now that I see the spring green one I may just change my mind...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE front doors that are painted a fun colour :-) So many people leave their doors white - they're missing out on a great opportunity to add character to their houses. Our door has been two shades of purple, dark brown, bluish-black, turquoise, and now teal (I'd seriously been considering bright green!) I'll be posting pics of the door tomorrow or Wednesday, along with some other projects I've been working on :-)

ReplyDeleteWow, that's very cool. I'm looking forward to seeing the pics!
oooooo, that orange door with the gray brick really caught my eye. My favorite color combo! It's amazing how you can change the look of your home with one little door. I enjoy your posts, Kelly. Always so fresh and inspirational.

I love the idea of painting the inside {interior of the home} of the front door and not just the outside. Hmmm, I might have to do this!
