Clearly, we weren't careful enough.
Meet our baby blue front door.
Our initial plan with the paint color was to go two shades lighter than the house. But remember, that was also back when we thought the house would read more dark gray than navy.
It does help the door stand out.. but not exactly in the way we intended.
Thankfully the painter is going to revisit our choice. We decided to try a more gray tone, and see how it works out. Worst case scenario... we deal with it until I can find the perfect shade.
In the meantime, aren't our little shrubs out front just too cute!
Edit: After a 2nd coat of paint, things are looking much more gray and much less "little boy blue." We agreed to keep it for now and I'll share some updated pictures soon!
