A few weeks ago I posted about two doors we put behind our loveseat in our lower level living room. I liked the doors, but something bothered me about them. You all know I love the color white & I love using it in my decor, but the antique doors behind the couch were almost a “smokers white” and looked dingy. I know in photos they don’t look terrible, but in person they were just not what I wanted. So, what did I do? I painted them of course! I played around with some new colors & had some fun…

I’m loving the rustic texture & the contrast of the doors now. Whenever I walk by them they just make me happy. Again, the lighting is kind of weird in this area so I actually like the doors better in person than I do in photos, but we can’t be too picky can we? Here are what the doors looked like a few days ago…

& after a quick coat of Maison Blanche confederate gray, sealing it with white chalk wax, & painting the doorknobs with Maison Blanche wrought iron here is what the doors are looking like now…

I asked on Instagram the other day what color you guys thought I would paint the doors & a lot of you were pretty close! For now I put a wreath from Target on the doors, but who knows what I will end up hanging there in the near future. I will move the office sign from [Painted Fox] to another location just because it blended in too much with the doors now. What do you think of our painted doors? I love the contrast & the big impact it adds to the room now. I think it makes the room more cozy now & that’s always a good thing. Let me know in the comments below, on Facebook, & chat with me on Instagram. xx
