I love a bold door. Red is a great color for a front door but my neighbor on one side has a red door. I love a yellow house. I grew up in a yellow house, my wedding flowers were yellow, I love how bright, cheery and welcoming yellow is, but my neighbor on the other side has a beautiful yellow house. Maybe I should do a yellow house with a red door?! If it does come down to it I'm not afraid to "copy" my neighbors but I first want to take into consideration all other options, and ultimatley decide up colors that are classy but fun and represent Ben and I.

I asked my sister Laina for advice and she suggested gray and showed me the picture above. Gray is a classy modern paint color that allows for so many front door color options. I am definitely considering gray as the color for my house. Yet it gets complicated since there are so many shades of gray! Some grays are icy and cold, some are warm and inviting.
I was running past a home the other day and decided to knock on the door to find out what shade of gray they painted their house. The little old woman was so sweet and even invited me in and showed me her pretty house. I made a friend, and found a paint color for my house. We've bought a sample and will paint a piece of our house to see if we like it. If we do go with gray we have so many options for a front door color. Too bad I am so indecisive... that decision may take more searching and brain wracking.
I am currently accepting all advice.
