Well, my front door that I recently painted green didn't come out quite so well, it was a really humid day and I put the paint on too thick, and then it started dripping, then I repainted over the drips only to make bigger globs of paint. So, I had to call in the experts and I am glad I did. We picked out a new color from the Home Depot Raisin but, the painter only uses Ben Moore- his local supplier of choice (I like to shop at the local hardware store also) so, they did a color match and it turned out really nice. My son is so cute he said, "Mom why did you paint the bricks darker? I liked them lighter!"--It was such a dramatic difference-- and it looks stunning really! Next problem, I REALLY wanted to get new doors with silver instead of the brass but, there really wasn't anything wrong with the doors so in an effort to make it look better without all of that added cost I spray painted the locks- after removing them - Rustoleum's Gold Champagne which I really do like the color, it is definitely a great compromise! The hardware was originally the same color as the brass inserts and now that it is repainted I have to say I love it. it blends nicely. Thank you Home Depot for carrying every color of spray paint! I have to get some flowers for the planters and power wash the steps and it will be perfect! How is your front door looking this summer for company????!! Share your ideas!
