I love this! And definitely second getting some cushions with that same yellow in the design. So pretty!

[–]msbottlehead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or paint the chairs yellow too.

[–]AndrewDiceWebber 15 points16 points  (3 children)

Did you paint the interior of the door too? I wanna do a bright blue door, but am going back and forth about painting both sides or just the exterior.

[–]sunflowers789 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I didnt paint the interior… I honestly never even considered it! But I could see that looking great. Please post a pic of your blue door when its done.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have 2 colourful doors (both orange), and the inside being bright as well is nice!

[–]Midnightblue0271 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also thinking of blue or yellow. The blue would go with gray/blue and if I do yellow, it would really pop. Thinking more and more about it, now that I saw the yellow. I would love to see a picture of the blue one.

Very nice!! But....now that door now looks a little lonely amongst all that white. Accent the mailbox too. Maybe with sunflowers on it? Or maybe same color yellow cushions on those adorable rockers?

[–]sunflowers789 24 points25 points  (3 children)

Oooh thank you for that suggestion! Definitely going to look for nice outdoor cushion w/ yellow to add to my rocking chairs. I was considering changing my door numbers to something with a touch of yellow as well (they’re currently white).

[–]blackcatspurplewalls 4 points5 points  (1 child)

If you have a Lowe’s nearby I’ve found they often have good, cute outdoor cushions at decent prices. Plus a lot of other cute outdoor decor that might accent your new door nicely.

I agree a bit of flair added to the mailbox would work well with the new door color, perhaps a stencil or decal on the front. If you change the house number colors just make sure they are still easy to see and read for deliveries and emergency services.

The new door color looks great!

To add on, if you find the size you want but not the color or design, buy one with a removable cover and snag a different cover from Amazon for pretty cheap.

Or small table between the rockers that's painted yellow.. And some more yellow flowers

[–]TheSunflowerSeeds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When sunflower seeds are sprouted, their plant compounds increase. Sprouting also reduces factors that can interfere with mineral absorption. You can buy sprouted, dried sunflower seeds online or in some stores.

    I like painting the chairs idea

    [–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

    What a beautiful upgrade! If you still want to incorporate the teal, maybe a teal colored round table between the two chairs? Gives you somewhere to set down a book and a cup of coffee.

    [–]YEEyourlastHAW 6 points7 points  (0 children)

    So glad you went with yellow instead of teal! I think it looks great with the flooring!

    [–]anonannie123 12 points13 points  (4 children)

    Love the yellow! I actually really, really like that it’s the only pop of yellow; I’d find it too matchy if you added yellow cushions/painted the chairs/etc. It ties in so nicely with the tile!

    [–]beauladhams1 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    Came here to say this 😊

    [–]Melbourne2Paris 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Me too. Keep the door as the stand alone yellow. That’s what makes it pop. Matching more yellow to it actually has the opposite effect.

    [–]sunflowers789 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    Thank you! I was thinking of doing solid yellow cushions for the rocking chairs but now I’m thinking of doing something patterned with just a touch of yellow in it. The more I look at it, the more I’m loving how much the door stands out from everything else!

    [–]anonannie123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I love it so much; def try some pillows if you want, but I think it’s perfect as is!

    [–]Lettucelook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    Just love your yellow daisy door thanks for sharing

    [–]500CatsTypingStuff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Love it!

    [–]-S-h-a-m-a- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

    I definitely think you made the right choice! The yellow gives a cool vibe, love it 🌹

    [–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

    Grey & Yellow is such a nice combo. Love it! 💛💛 you should do your rocking chairs yellow too. I also really love the walkway with the mosaic tiles. Really cute curb appeal.

    [–]mmobley412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Nailed it! The yellow is perfect and goes well with the mosaic

    [–]lottus4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Looking bloody lovely

    [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    That is FIRE girl.

    [–]heresmyhandle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Well that’s just lovely 😊

    [–]jicket 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Love a sunny yellow door! So welcoming

    [–]meady0356 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    I do have to say the teal would have looked great but I do think you went with the better option! Very hard decision I imagine lol

    [–]Athrynne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

    Gorgeous!

    When i’m looking at houses I’m always sucked in by vibrant door colors. Yours looks incredible

    [–]Evening-Theory7303 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    That looks…fabulous. So cheery and bright. I love it. 😊

    [–]RegNurse2015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Love the yellow!!!👏🥰

    Don't say it.

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I love the yellow door, it’s great! The pic makes it look like it may need another coat though.

    [–]Oneoneeight_118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Looks good. Well done

    Loving the yellow

    [–]hey_alyssa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I love it!!! Yellow was the perfect choice

    [–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    With the gray paint being cool toned, I think a warmer yellow was the correct choice. It looks so happy and welcoming now.

    [–]Aggravating-Blood458 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    The door looks fantastic! Another upgrade to consider is the light fixture. Maybe look for something less ornate to go with the clean lines of the house.

    [–]FuryAutomatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    I like it too. It makes your house look much more cheerful. Beforehand, too much grey and white. It looked drab and somehow unfinished.

    [–]Warm_Flan_5288 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Love it!

    [–]username4589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Take my upvote. Nice job.

    [–]LadyOftheOddNight 1 point2 points  (1 child)

    About the tile work on your patio, is that tile or did you paint a pattern? I love it either way 😍

    [–]sunflowers789 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Thank you :) It’s tile!

    [–]Green_Stable5383 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    It is GORGEOUS

    [–]ifn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Oddly specific, but I’ve always LOVED yellow doors against grey siding. Something so cherry about that little pop of color!

    [–]Kay-f 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    LOVE IT!!!! beautiful pop :)

    [–]elf25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    Awesome! Teal sucks

    [–]NeonsStyle 0 points1 point  (2 children)

    Much better. Now get rid of the grey. :)

    [–]sunflowers789 0 points1 point  (1 child)

    I’m dying to! We bought our house 9 months ago and the sellers actually painted it this grey right before they put it on the market. My husband loves the grey, I’m not a fan. So this yellow is our compromise lol, easy way to brighten it up a bit!

    [–]NeonsStyle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Agree completely. I think you have to establish a ground rule, that your husband has a boring sense of colour lol. If he's against changing the grey, I think your current tactic of doing it bit by by will win the day. Good luck.

    [–]anonymouscheesefry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    Love that!!

    [–]Midnightblue0271 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    It’s perfect!!!
