I LOOOOOVE the waterscape door. That last picture is my dream front door!! Haha! Our house was built in the early ’80s and we think the (falling apart, cracking, leaking) door is original so this summer we’re biting the bullet and replacing it. Based on the mix of 80’s style brick, vinyl siding, and wood paneling, I’m thinking a plain white door would look best. But, it’s my goal to one day have a dreamy pastel front door!
I know, isn’t it gorgeous? I love that color too – Gretchen Black is a genius with choosing paint colors! Good luck with your project!
