OUR HUMBLE ABODE
BEFORE A FRESH COAT OF PAINT . . .
I have a friend that painted her front door yellow a couple of years ago. I was in love with her "bachelorette meets anthropolie" style that gave her cute house a modern, yet sleek, look. I wanted my home (especially the exterior) to reflect my style too, but unfortunately, my first house with my husband was also his first house with his first wife. That's life and I lived with it . . .
But now with our new home, we have a fresh start, and the ability
to make this traditional house a stylish home.
Throughout this remodel, we've had plenty of design conflicts but I knew that I had to have a yellow front door. With plenty of white traditional homes in the area, our friends will be sure to acknowledge our home as well as our "modern traditional style."
Though I thought it would be another hard battle trying to convince Eric of this crazy color choice, these inspiring pictures did the work for me and sealed the deal to the
first yellow front door in our traditional neighborhood!
I JUST WANT TO HURRY AND PAINT THE FRONT DOOR SO I CAN DECORATE FOR THE HOLIDAYS!
I'M ABOUT TO GO CRAZIER THAN I ALREADY AM . . .
ENJOY OUR INSPIRATION!
OUR YELLOW DOOR PICS ARE COMING SOON!
oh my goodness, your house is awesome! I can't wait to see how you end up decorating it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It's so traditional which is completely Eric's style but the inside is looking more "modern-traditional" with random little splashes of funk. I'll post more pics later as we decorate . . .
