    I like rich colors.. maybe a Kelly green. 

    No matter what color combinations I use on the house, I always have a door problem

    That black color is a stumbling block. Try a dark blue if you want to keep it a dark color.

    You could use yellow for your door, or a cedar color like your shutters, or white like your trim, or an orangy color, or even a teal color. Plenty of options to use with your charcoal colored house. I like the color of your house. It looks very nice.

    For the door, I was gonna suggest a bright lime green (are those hydrangeas under the windows?), to pull from the landscaping. Or a vibrant lavender/pink, for some reason, lol.

    I might actually keep the chair white and urns black. But I'd plant some multicolored flowers in the urns.

    I was thinking maybe the trim around the glass door should be charcoal as well. Maybe I'm having a tough time with door colors is the house is pretty small and the door is bold

    I would go with white door frame as on your windows.

    Not sure if you have to go with any color rather than cedar as on your shutters.

    Thank you for the ideas. The first thing I did today was the trim around the glass door in white. I was clueless on a door color but bought a quart of ppg sage splendor prior to seeing your posts.

    I'll paint tomorrow and keep u updated

    Nooooooooo! The frame of the full view storm door must be the same as the front door. (No need for a picture frame). Now you should paint the door white.

    No white door. Color you choose is very nice.

    Celery, I had to put a coat of primer on which is white and now waiting for the shutters to dry to put up and will take a look

    Celery, which color door did you like? The sample I posted?

  • 4 years ago

    You will all be happy to know I painted my front shutters white. I will put the pics up later when they dry and I can rehang them. Also I painted the door with some white primer just to see if we all like white or maybe you guys can live with the color I picked out and posted. After all $30 for a quart of paint?

    I had to run some of it on my gums to make sure it wasn't cocaine.... 😂

    Too much sun right now to take pics

    Did allot of work today. Not sure on the door still. It's primer. But not hating the traditional.

    The house looks nice. I like what you’ve done.

    The chair, however, sticks out like a sore thumb to me. It’s too big for that spot. Put it somewhere else. If you had a small backless bench, you could set it perpendicular to the door, and it would provide a space to set things down while you get the door open.

    I think the house looks really good. I wouldnt move the rocker either, cuz they are very comfortable, and sitting on front porch, you should have a comfy chair.

    Sage

    Oooooh I like the sage (if you don't want to go bright)! But green is my favorite neutral, so I'm totally biased.

    What do you think about lavender in the urns? Gray-green foliage with beautiful purple flowers. <3

    Edited to add: And scooch the urns over a bit, so they aren't resting on the walkway. :-D

    I am not fond of the sage. I did like it with just the primer on it, and I think, a red, or a teal, would be even nicer.
