With white walls and gray trim, “this place was a beautiful blank slate,” says blogger Ellen of blackandwhiteandlovedallover. Her front door is painted in the perfect shade of periwinkle — Sherwin-Williams “Celestial”
A Pop of Deep Blue
A pop of deep sea blue on the door flanked by large ceramic planters seem to say “C’mon in!”. Guests are treated to a warm welcome, the scent of the orange trees and a too-cute friendly face.
Shiplap Style in Colonial Blue
A gray shingled exterior with crisp white trim is off-set by the Colonial blue front door. Fresh flowers in a hanging wicker basket are an easy update during the growing season. Check out these 21 Cool Blue Front Doors from homestratosphere.
Tranquil Turquoise

Marine Paint Makeover

Last year I found the perfect coastal blue paint for my front door. In the local marine supply store! The new fiberglass front door we installed is the same material as our small Boston Whaler. So after painting the underside of the boat I dove in and painted the door with Pettit Easypoxy High Gloss Topside Marine Paint in Ocean Blue.
The marine paint isn’t cheap but the brilliant shine and super durable finish were worth it. The paint went on smooth due to the addition of silicone. After painting the boat and the front door, there was enough paint left over to paint the shed door to match! The hand painted sign points to the two nearby beaches in opposite directions.
