front door makeover!

hello everyone!

it has been such a crazy summer and here it is almost half way through fall… i feel like it has flown by so fast!! where did june-october go.. seriously.

today i wanted to drop in and share with you my front door make over! i have wanted to paint my door for some time now. i just couldn’t decide which colour.. orange, red or black.

all i knew for sure was that i was using the DecoArt Curb Appeal paint. . Curb Appeal paint write up on the page states: *Durable, fast-drying, fade-resistant acrylic paint that offers superior protection without requiring a sealer. Its versatile semi-gloss finish is both scuff- and water-resistant, making it perfect for outdoor use. This water-based formula offers excellent adhesion to metal, wood, plastic, and more.* sounds perfect to me.

i started off by pouring a bit into a small container and using my Dynasty brush applied my first coat

i applied the first coat to the door and seriously contemplated leaving it as is because i loved the peaking of the blue coming up… made it look somewhat ‘old’ to me

while the first coat was drying i applied some black paint to my shutters because after all as you will see in the before photos they really really REALLY needed some TLC

absolutely love the before and after!! what a huge difference right!

and so here you have it.. the before

and seriously, this piece so went with everything about my make over right!!

thanks for stopping by! come back later this month to see a bit more of my front step make over!

until next time my friends
