I love white. It's clean, it's modern...it's light and airy. But too much of it is just plain boooooooring.
Enter this area of our home....
White ceiling + white trim + white door + ginormous white barn door = bleh. Okay, maybe “bleh” is a little harsh. Let’s use sterile instead. ;)
So with a little paint and a little effort, our front door went from boring white...
...to a fun, icy blue!
Of course the addition of an old mirror and a couple new frames also helped to spruce up the space a bit. Sometimes I am still amazed at how a splash of color and a couple accessories can make a space feel more and more like home.
Yay for crossing more things off the "to-do" list...no matter how small they may be!! :)



FUN! I love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :)
DeleteI LOVE that barn door like seriously I want it :) and I really like the new color of your door.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! It's one of my favorite things in our house! :)
DeleteI love the pop of blue! Is is the same color as the buffet right there? Your barn door is so kick a**. I want one!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's actually a different color, but they look pretty similar. Which of course drove me crazy at first, but not as much anymore. I have been brainstorming other colors to paint the buffet though hehe.
DeleteThank you! I highly recommend installing one...I'm obsessed with ours. It's one of my favorite things in our home! :)
Love that color! It looks awesome.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Melanie! :)
DeleteLOVE the mint! It makes the whole space look so fresh. Did you paint the outside too?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Justine! I actually painted the outside a dark teal-ish color a couple months ago.
DeleteIt looks fantastic! It's a great way to add a fun punch of colour! I loooooove your barn door. Seriously need to get me one of those!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine! I love it too...it came out a million times better than I thought it would! Definitely get one! ;)
DeleteBah! This is great! It's the perfect addition of some color to the space.
ReplyDeleteThanks Amy! :)

DeleteLove it! I'll be painting our front door eventually and now you have me wondering if I should do the inside too...
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, go for it! It makes a nice statement for the entryway! :)
DeleteI tired to comment on this the other day, and my computer froze on me =( Anyway, was gonna say it looks great! I love all the pops of blue/aqua in your home.
