My BLUE Front Door

Welcome to my new blue front door!

I've always wanted to paint my front door blue

but was rejected twice by our HOA. Not one 

to give up, I went to their next meeting armed 

with pictures of other doors painted in the 

neighborhood that were red, green, brown, 

and black. I also brought my navy color paint

 chip as well chocolate chips...cookies that is 

to pass around in my navy lined Longaberger

 basket, while wearing my navy dress. 

Subtlety was not an option. It was all well 

received and they made an exception for 

my color choice and thought it would be 

very pretty. Larry and I left soon thereafter 

before they could change their minds. 

The color is Naval by Sherwin-Williams.

Picking just the right shade of blue without

going too bright is not easy. I got inspiration 

via blogland, my favorite source. Ann over at

On Sutton Place, painted her door this blue.

It looked perfect. She loved the color so 

much she even painted some of her kitchen

 cabinets. Hmmm...keeping in mind when

 I need want to paint the kitchen island 

or whatever else needs to be blue.

I had to do a Waterlogue app version.

 Here's the white door before.

 Trying it with my
  blue and white fabric scrap wreath.

Here with the spring floral wreath.

I love it every time I walk up to it! 

I'm in blue heaven!

Cheers!
