Long ago, I decided that I wanted to pain the front door and shutters on our house black. They are this faded maroon type color, and our house is gray. A few months ago, the door knob on the front door broke and we had to replace it. Then, about a week ago the deadbolt needed replacing, so yesterday my husband took the door off the hinges, sanded the door down and I painted.
Here’s the before:
Here’s the after:
Much better. Don’t you think?
Happiness.
Now for the shutters. That project is a bit bigger than the door.

It looks great, good job.
I love it! Very classy! I have always wanted a black door and black shutters, but Brian wanted a wood door and we don't have shutters-- maybe on our next house...
Looks great! Now I want to paint something! Or rather, I want to have something painted! (I'm not so good with the painting projects, personally.)
It looks so great! Did you use one of those paint sprayers? I need to redo our front door before the cold hits, but last time I used a brush (which is why I need to redo it).
I love it! I love what a difference a little paint can make. Great job!
That looks very nice! What a change a little paint and new hardware makes!
Super nice! I know a home makeover isn't important in the grand scheme of things, but I too LOVE to do little updates to my house...it makes it feel like more of a home when you do what you want to it. So much fun :)
love red. love black. win. win!
great job for inspiring!
