Door and shutter colors

10 years ago

After visiting the south of France this summer and seeing the beautiful blues on the doors and shutters, I'm kinda over our black on our cape cod. I love the idea of using one color on the shutters and a different color on the door - I want to use periwinkle on the door - but what color should the shutters be? Considering the lighter of these paint chips for door.
