Our home is considered “french chateau” in style, and I have never loved our front door. It was originally red when we moved in over two years ago. Although I would love to eventually replace the front door, painting is always a less expensive option. I painted it a medium gray.
Grays are so hard because they can shine blue, so I decided you can never go wrong with black.
Modern Masters sent me a jar of their never-fades front door paint, and I actually used it to paint one side of my front door (along with two doors in our garage). I still have enough paint to paint one more door!
This paint makes it so easy. All you have to do for prep is clean and tape off areas you don’t want to paint.
If you have some peeling paint, you’ll want to sand first and follow up with a cleaning.
But if you don’t have any peeling or chipped paint, just clean your door and go for it!
Here’s the Amazon affiliate link for the Modern Masters Front Door Paint in Elegant:
My front door has a little bit of a faux wood grain texture, and the paint went on well and dried perfectly.
My garage door has a smooth finish but had a sloppy layer of latex paint on it. I wish I had sanded it down a little because the paint finish is a little uneven. However, I have not seen an scratches in the paint which I had plenty of with the latex paint.
While I was painting doors, my daughter was also working on her own project. 🙂
What is your favorite front door color? Do you prefer to play it safe like me or have fun like my daughter?

We waited 13 years for this - and our house looks happier with her glow-up!
We went from a drafty single door (with a 90s glass inlay I poorly covered up) to double doors that allows in more light and feel right for our home.

Bathroom Reveal. 💫 Last spring, our upstairs shower leaked into our living room below. We were put on our contractor’s list - and the wait was worth it! We now have a gorgeous bathroom with checkerboard floors - a dream of mine since I first saw my husband’s granny’s farmhouse bathroom with checkerboard floors (years and years ago)! The shower glass is coming soon. Comment LINKS, and I’ll send you the blog post and bathroom product links.

I used to paint everything. I literally taught chalk paint classes and wrote an ebook about it.
So I don’t blame whoever painted these, but every room needs a little natural wood.

*TWO THINGS that make wallpaper removal easy* Wallpaper has come a long way and there’s no need to be scared of it anymore! Before I hang wallpaper, I size the walls and often use pre-pasted SureStrip wallpaper that is activated with water! Comment WALLPAPER for easy to remove wallpaper links!
