Most of the time, decorating ideas for the inside of your home is more important than decorating ideas for the outside. Curb appeal projects can use up a lot of your budget if you spend a lot of money on landscaping, painting the outside of your house, and other things like that. However, there are some small projects you can do that will make a big difference. Like the inside of your house, a can of paint gives you the most for your money. Change everything with a bold color on your front door. Here are some of CCT Apex House Painting’s favorite colors for front doors.
Red
Some people are afraid to put such a bright red on their front door, but it is one of the most welcoming colors to use outside. Pick a red that goes well with the other colors on the outside of your home. You can use a high-gloss fire engine red to make a bold statement, or you can tone it down with a warmer shade like paprika.
Orange
Orange looks great next to a dark house color like charcoal, gray, navy, or any other dark color. Take ideas from the beautiful sunset in Grover Beach or any sunrise on the Central Coast. Somehow, these shades of orange are soothing and welcoming, which is perfect for that cozy, homey feeling.
Yellow
Yellow paint is a great choice for a front door because it can go with almost anything. Choose a mustard yellow for a look that isn’t as loud. Choose a lemony high gloss yellow if you want a bright and cheery welcome. Yellow looks good with almost every color of the house outside. Like orange, it looks great against a dark gray house but also looks great on a beach house with white shingles.
Lime Green
We just couldn’t leave lime green off our list of favorite bold colors, especially for homes in the Central Coast area. Surprisingly, lime green looks good with bold colors that might not work well with other bright colors. Plum, brown, and even red look great with lime green.
