Painting is not all about what you see in paint advertisements. You have to plan before you execute. The first thing is to take the door off the frame and not fix it before the paint dries out completely or else it will stick creating loads of problem. If you are not so confident, hire a professional. It will save on money and time. Still if you are planning it DIY, remember to use primer and paint to get that perfectly professional look.

Choosing the colour for the door

Remember the front door leaves a lasting impression and it’s a fact that most of the time people remember the house with the colour of the front door. Be bold and bright for modern look or go traditional with traditional colour or subtle shades for more traditional look; just let it reflect your style.

Red is a very warm colour and auspicious too for Indians. Combine it with natural wooden door if you are not comfortable in going red all over with the door.

2. Pop of blue on the door

The pop of blue is cool and calm and surely is loved by most. It adds a bright and unique retro style into the space.

If you love the contemporary look for your home and are bold enough to carry it with confidence, be bold and paint the door black. Elevate the colour with metal door handle and a bit of work on the door.

4. Soothing shade of green
