Have you ever thought about painting a door in your home a favorite colour?

We just replaced the entrance to our now-nearly-complete basement with a new frosted glass door; and instead of painting it white like all the colonial-style doors in my home, I decided to give this one a little personality of its own!

I chose a shade of turquoise (of course!). This door is in our open-concept kitchen/living room area, so it matches all my turquoise-inspired accents – like my drapery and backsplash.

I am totally smitten. The colour is Benjamin Moore Arctic Blue (2050-60). LOVE it. I considered a whole range of colours in this family before settling on this one. It’s a really soft shade of robin’s egg blue that is easy on the eyes and very soothing. It makes me smile.

Here’s how it looks in the context of some accessories:

So, if you’ve been considering painting a door in your home a great colour, my advice would be don’t hesitate another second!

Until next time, happy decorating!
