House to Home: Door

Hello,

I recently relocated with my family to Texas to a house and area I had never seen before and we are starting to turn this house into our home.  The first thing I did when we moved in is add some color to the front door. You can't tell in the pictures but it was really dingy and worn with scratches all over it.  Here is the before photo.  





















 I loved the blue I painted my last door (Mark Twain by Kwal) but this house seemed to be calling for red or yellow.  I didn't go with red because tons of people have red doors and then our house would be red, white and blue and although I love America that would be a little over the top.  I decided on a sunny yellow that seemed to go well with the blue shutters and the brick color.  I got it at Home Depot and I think it is called Autumn Moon.

Here is the after picture. 

 I might go back and paint the side panels the same color as the trim but I can't decide.  I kind of want to paint the shutters black but we couldn't get them off so that might be a professional is needed project in the future but for now I have a fresh, sunny face on my new place.  :)

I am trying so hard to just tackle and finish one project at a time but it is difficult for me but I will try to keep you updated and I turn this house in our home.  

Sincerely, 

Sizzle
