You never get a second chance to make a first impression.   So why not add a little color and excitement to your home by painting the front door?  (all photos are courtesy of flickr and creativecommons.org)

I love the contrast between the blue and terracotta.

Try these colors from Seven’s

Green is such an easy color to love and live with.

Who wouldn’t love a Seaweed green door?

Isn’t this so inviting?  Symmetry and shutters are a good thing.

Blue Lapis and Fairview Taupe

A classic look with red, black and white.

Aren’t the black details nice?  Try a softer black like Black Jack 2133-20  to provide crispness without being too harsh.

Okay, the wisteria is overwhelmingly beautiful, but so is the door.  Two subtle colors lend a sophisticated feel to this entry.

The color palette coordinates with the silvery green plants.

Minimalism at its best.  Yellow is striking with earthy neutrals.

Are you this brave?  Glimmer and Clinton Brown, very chic.

I hope you are inspired to try some color.

I came across this Irish Blessing and though I would share it with you:

May you have warm words on a cold evening, a full moon on a dark night and a smooth road all the way to your door. (your freshly painted colorful door)
