Hi Everyone!
Its September guys! My beloved summer is coming to an end, and unlike almost everyone I know, I am not ready to let go just yet. Though I love fall fashion and TV, I’m a complete and total summer lover. I’m trying my hardest to hold on to these last few days of 90 degree weather, long days, and summer dresses.
While the theme of the moment may be fall décor around the blogosphere, I thought Id give one more ode to summer with today’s Design Obsession inspiration. Nothing says summer like a vibrant and cheerful front door. I just love seeing homes with fun front doors. They immediately make me curious as to what’s inside. I really want to paint our front door a fun color and luckily for us we don’t have a Homeowners Association to deal with.
Our home is such a cookie cutter, planned neighborhood tract house and I hate that it looks so similar to all the others in the community. Some color on the front door would be the perfect way to set it apart without going too overboard. These are a few of my favorites.

I love bold doors! Right now I have the standard comes with the house white. I am hoping to repaint the door one day if the new HOA doesn’t come crashing in on my plans.
Brookskelly says
Wow these doors are awesome because of his color and design. I loved your idea and obvious design also.
All doors are awesome but black i liked the most because I love a dark interior door.

LOVE a bright front door!! I painted ours and raised quite a few eyebrows in our neighborhood, but I think everyone is used to it now. 😉

I love colorful front doors!! And love our Chartreuse front door 🙂 Very few houses on our street have painted front doors, which is so odd to me! Go for it now 🙂

One of the first things I did when we bought our house 6 years ago was paint the front door from black to red! I’ve never regretted it. Go for it!!

those are all fabulous!!! i love a pop on the door! our last house we painted pale gray and white with black shutters and i painted the door canary yellow and loved it! this house is brown brown brown with a reddish brown roof, so i am working with a palette so out of my comfort zone and we won’t be replacing the roof until it needs it. so the door is a shade of turquoise, but i would love a pale house with a bright door again.

my door is black but I’d love to go with some bold color… my house has a goldish stucco tone… don’t know which color I’d pick …. too hard so I just stay with black!

I admit I have completely left summer in the dust and I am all about fall right now! One of the first things we did we moved into our house was paint our front door, robins egg blue. We are known as the house with the blue door. You strike me was a deep blue or vibrant orange door kinda girl! Paint it now, why wait until spring! 😉

Ha, I wish… I’d love to be able to paint my door a fun color. Now I feel like breaking the law (the neighborhood law 😉
