Hey Alexa,
I keep flip flopping. Now I think I might be leaning towards the blue. We have a few paint contractors coming this week and I’m hoping to find someone with expertise who can guide me in the right direction. I am also hoping there might be a few tricks we can use to highlight some of the architectural details. We will see. Who would think that choosing a color would be such a struggle?

You are right, grey is super popular right now, I’m just so torn. Thanks for the feedback on the flowers. I think I’m finally starting to embrace a little pink in my life.

I really appreciate everybody’s input!

You could always do yellow flowers and get your yellow fix that way? Purple would look good if you go for the yellow door…so many options. I’m excited for you.

I would definitely go with a deep, rich yellow door. It’ll be a bit more modern than a traditional red door and will really pop against both the white trim and the gray base. It would also be great to push yourself to a style that you love but aren’t really familiar with. And, worst case scenario, if you do it and decide you can’t stand it, it will be a lot easier to cover yellow with red than the other way around.

Team Yellow Door!

I agree with you. I was thinking it needed to be darker too.

There is still dispute over red door/yellow door. If you know me, you know I am a red girl. Red lipstick, red sunglasses red anything else. I’ve always done red. Part of me says that would be a good enough reason to do red again, and part of me says that I should broaden my horizons and go yellow. Still don’t know which way that will be in the end.

Question: If I were to go red for an accent, I’m not sure I could have hot pink flowers in the front garden. What other combination would you suggest? Green, White and?? Red?

Thanks to all of you for your feedbackz!

I agree with Jessica. I like the lighter gray for the house and would really like you to fulfill your yellow door dream….BUT that is the best color red. I just bought a pair of paints that color so your door could look as awesome as my legs…okay. yeah. I don’t know anything about plants. Go Alison, GO!
