Should I Paint That? Front Door Edition
Painting your front door is an amazing way to add some extra character to the exterior of your home and show off your personality. There isn't one right color that will work for everyone's front door because of HOA, personal style, and the color of your siding and shudders. Here are reasons why you should paint your front door:
Curb Appeal
The front door is one of the first things a potential buyer will notice when viewing your home. Having a unique and interesting front door color will draw in more people because if the front door is cool, the rest of the house must be as well! It is important to use colors that complement your home in order to not scare people away.
Exterior Update
If you have been dissatisfied with the exterior of your home, painting your front door is a simple way to bring it back to life. You are able to fully express yourself and show off your character through the color choice! Make sure you check with your Home Owners Association before painting so you don't have to cover your new paint right back up!
Make Your Home More Inviting (or Less)
Here we are again talking about color psychology! How do certain colors for your front door make your home feel?
If you want people to know that you are a social butterfly and your home is vibrant and high-energy, you should choose a yellow or red front door. Both of these colors portray excitement.
If your home is relaxing and minimalistic, try to paint your front door light blue, but if your home is relaxing and maximalist, you should try dark blue!
Now if your home is light, airy, and earthy, you can try a sage green.
Is your home serious and formal? A black front door it is!
Lastly, if your home is simplistic or farmhouse-themed, opt for a wood stained door to add that extra pop of character.
Whether you are trying to sell your home or just doing a little updating, painting your front door is a simple way to turn your home completely around! To enhance the color during spring and summer, you could plant flowers that match the door.
