I need a little help
I want to paint my front door, but I'm stuck. I have no hesitation when it comes to painting, rearranging, moving, repainting, covering, you name it... inside the house. The front door? Can't seem to do it. Can't decide on...

I hope this story has a happy ending
Remember these guys? The table and chairs I found on Craigslist for $50.00. My thought was I can give 'em a quick shot of white paint, a little distressing and maybe sell them and make a little profit. Well, that's...

Go for it! This is a great colour, nice and bright. It will look so pretty with the black and white.
I have a red front door. It makes me smile every time I come home at the end of a long day.

I love that color! What color is on your walls? I'm trying to find something like that for my kitchen.

Thank you Amy. The wall color is Vintage Kitchen. A Martha Stewart color from her line at Sherwin Williams.

PERFECT SHADE!!!!

Red was in the running Rachel, but Im just more of a blue girl. I tried red in my kitchen for a while and it just wasnt me. I do think a red front door says welcome, this is a fun and happy house.

That is the same spray paint I used on the blue owl on the bottom shelf.

I love the valspar spray paint. It covers so well!

Oops, thought it was just one link. The first two are my favorite. They are all really happy and bright. Im going for it!
Posted by: Autum | August 10, 2010 at 01:26 PM
yes!
Posted by: mommymae | August 10, 2010 at 01:56 PM
I would go for the blue! We have a yellow tan house with ocean blue trim, and I love it!!! Personally that blue is better than the blue I have going on, LOL!

Love that color - and I am absolutely d-y-i-n-g to get my hands on those curtains!
I will watch your door transformation with interest - currently, I can't decide what I want to do with mine. The paint needs to compliment cream vinyl siding and brick. Currently the door and shutters are painted cream. (aka blah)

Oh, looks good!
Posted by: domesticali | August 10, 2010 at 02:30 PM
Perfect choice!!! You'll love it!
Posted by: Maria | August 10, 2010 at 02:33 PM
Curtains are from IKEA. Blue looks great with cream and brick : )
Posted by: Autum | August 10, 2010 at 02:49 PM
I think it's a great color. Maybe you'll inspire me to paint mine....grin.

Beth, your flickr photos are marked private. I couldn't view your link.

Thank you Tricia : )

That's what I said when I painted the chair.
Posted by: Autum | August 10, 2010 at 03:13 PM
I think yellow and blue are great together!

I have to convince Mitch to take that heavy door down first so I can spray it.
Posted by: Autum | August 10, 2010 at 03:15 PM
I'll post a picture as soon as I get it done.
Posted by: Autum | August 10, 2010 at 03:15 PM
What a brilliant color! I say go for it with that one! :D
