How to Paint a Front Door
I chose a beautiful spring day to paint my front door. I started out by taping newspaper down on the floor and on the threshold, so I wouldn’t make any unwanted spills. I then wiped off the door with a clean, wet rag to clear off any dust, and let the door dry. I got to work once the door was dry, following Modern Master’s very easy painting instructions, except that I didn’t paint my door edge. (I left that white). After the first coat of paint was applied, I waited an hour for the paint to dry and then painted the second coat on my door. I completed painting my door in one morning!
I love how the new Modern Masters Front Door Paint color looks on my home’s front door, and my kids love the color, too! (My husband didn’t say anything, but he is usually ambivalent about our home’s decor.)

This is another look at the front door. I love how the door adds a pop of color to my home. I think the door looks great as a backdrop for the flower garden!
Modern Masters Front Door Paint is available at selected Lowe’s and Ace Hardwares as well as online via Amazon, HomeDepot.com or the Modern Masters online shop.
A Little “Hello”
My front door was so pretty after painting it, that I wanted to jazz it up a little. I had come across The Vinyl Company on both Facebook and Pinterest, and just loved their “Hello” decal, so I just had to add one to my door! The decal was super simple to put on the door, and I love the visual interest and bit of whimsy it adds!

I would pick hopeful.
I like the green paint. I would paint my door green.
I like Elegant, I would choose that color if I won.
Calm or serene I think.
