Yes, the blue is bright, but if you like it, that's what matters.

Are those blue planters? Why not put some plants in there?

Actually, this time of year, you could stack some pumpkins on top, and orange goes nicely with blue. In the spring, you could get some nice plants in there.

Also you could take a look at the whole front of your house and see if it might be improved by planting some perennials that have flowers in shades of blue and white that are good for your climate zone.

Yes the planters are from a friend and still need plants in them but thought they matched with the door.

The planters are perfect.

It might be too cold to put plants in them now depending on where you are.

later you could put just a green plant, or if you like colored foliage you could put in a coleus

or a croton

Front doors are like hair color…goes with your mood!

I paint the sidelights, as well.

Since you ask, the bold blue doesn’t seem to go with the very traditional brick architecture, and you may want to ask yourself how it fits with other houses in your neighborhood and whether you care. The blue planters could still work with a more subdued door and show your love of the color without raising the eyebrows of judgmental neighbors In a more traditional neighborhood if you care what others might think.
