There are a lot of great things about the color red. Nails, shoes, lips, but a door? Is it too crazy? Is it too out there? Would you Paint the Front Door Red?
Maybe I’m partial. There’s something about a pop of color that makes me happy. We put two coats on ours and as soon as we thaw out a bit after “snowmagedon” hit over the weekend, ours will be painted to perfection in Crimson Red.
But it was somewhere between the first and second coat that I started to fret. Should I have gone this bold? What was wrong with black?
A little more paint, though, and I knew it was just what the house needed. The neighbors all agree, too, which is really great news when you are the new kid on the block.
I’ve rounded up a bit of inspiration to try to convince you to consider red…
Ours with two coats!
I would and I even saw one the other day that was a darker shade of pink with the cutest decorative knocker but of course it would take the right house for that one. Red seems to go with a lot more. When we went to Greece the doors were all colors it was gorgeous.
I was just thinking about how we could add a pretty door knocker! Love that idea! And how fun to find a pink door!

Hi Wilma, Thanks so much for that link. I had no idea! That’s SO cool!! This house has had some crazy characters over the years calling it home, so a little bit of luck and a blessing sounds fantastic to me!

A red door is a great way to stand out and bring buyers in! We used crimson red by Behr for ours. The color is a real stunner!
