When I was looking at what color, or colors to paint my door I looked at my surrounding neighbors, and the houses that were similar in style. You probably are already doing that, but just a suggestion. As for the little side windows, without really getting a good look at them, I would definitely take the stain glass stuff out, and then see what it looks like after.sherrillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01356492885595392478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816996399705433335.post-92011438879369497452011-08-20T19:37:31.431-04:002011-08-20T19:37:31.431-04:00Thanks, Angie for the tip on the Valspar paint.

Sorry I don't have more photos to show of the house, but we haven't moved in yet (today is moving day one, actually...YAY!) so I'm limited on what photos I can take. But no worries, they will be coming. :) <br /><br />I'm thinking I'll have to stay with more neutral colors on the door because the Historical Society has to approve any changes made to the house. I'm thinking they must not be too picky if they allowed the door to be painted those colors in the first place. YIKES!<br />My only concern was the extreme detail all over, around, and on the sides of the door. I have a feeling I'll be staring a lot at that door just so I can really get a feel and visual of what might look nice. :)Testinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358819960292378064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816996399705433335.post-82241887032432858342011-08-18T06:19:35.596-04:002011-08-18T06:19:35.596-04:00Hey Christine! :) Thanks for commenting on my litt...Hey Christine! :) Thanks for commenting on my little cabinet feet, I just LOVE them so! I also love that they were cheap and very easy! lol<br />Your door will be so lovely when you get all those Miami Vice colors off of it! lol I can't really tell much about the rest of your house, so I'm not sure what color to chime in with for the door. Does it have any other architectural things like gingerbread trim, shutters etc? If so, what color are they? You could always paint it out in a neutral until you decide what color you really love...you know, just to get rid of the 80's pink and blue! (or is that teal?) Oh well...a nice chocolate brown, tan, cream, black or even white would work until you discovered the color you would really love to have. Maybe you could post a pic of the whole front of the house then it would be easier to tell what color to paint it. :) <br />Have a great day!<br />MissyMy Cottage Charmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02139190022476409282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816996399705433335.post-79992903119126297252011-08-09T20:26:06.079-04:002011-08-09T20:26:06.079-04:00Hi, Christine!

It's hard to say without seeing the rest of your house, but Centsational Girl just painted her door gray, and it was lovely!Amanda @ Serenity Nowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16483017563206007698noreply@blogger.com
