Splash of Color

A couple of weekends ago we decided to change the color of our front door and are really happy with how it turned out! When we finished our remodel/addition two years ago, we intentionally left the wooden door in its natural state. We like the natural look and thought it went well with our house. But after two years of getting the direct afternoon sun, it was starting to crack a bit and we realized that we'll need to paint it every couple years to keep it fresh. Sean worked on it over a weekend while I kept Mason at bay. We went with a geranium color (although it looks red in the photos), and are pleased with how it looks next to the grays of our house. Some before/after pics are below (I took the before pics at a bad time of day - excuse the shadows).
