Four festive front doors
Your front door is the focal point of your home, a smile on the front of your house that welcomes you inside. You can effortlessly create this sense of welcome by painting your front door in an inviting shade. The festive season provides another wonderful opportunity to elevate your home exterior using seasonal greenery and decorations.
Be inspired by four Little Greene front doors and discover ideas to add beauty and character to your entrance, from traditional wreaths to seasonal touches…
Pea Green
This soft, peaceful green has a definite brightness to it that makes it ideally suited to exterior settings. Featured on @pistachio.terrace’s front door, Pea Green beautifully contrasts with traditional warm yellow brick and contemporary monochrome tiles. For a festive addition, the simple bell and ribbon decoration is the perfect choice to complete this elegant and understated look.
Jewel Beetle
For a green with more warmth, richness and impact, consider Jewel Beetle – a deep, charismatic hue with yellow undertones. This green is perfect for front doors on traditional redbrick homes and works wonderfully alongside decorative stained-glass windows and gilded door accessories – as seen in this scheme from @rebecca_anchorban_house. Jewel Beetle provides a captivating backdrop to her classic red and green wreath, inviting you inside to explore the rest of her beautiful home.
Arras
If you’re seeking an entrance with a touch of grandeur and luxury, select a sumptuous deep red like Arras. Pairing this shade with the high-sheen gloss finish, Intelligent Gloss, will create a real statement finish, bringing impact and allure to your home exterior. @prettylittleedwardian introduced a simple wreath with red velvet ribbons to ensure Arras remains the focal point of her home.
Lamp Black
For homes with a traditional stone exterior, a deep navy or off-black hue can look very elegant and sophisticated. @chivsvictorianhouse chose Lamp Black – a striking black shade with warm undertones that produce a more gentle finish than true black. A wreath of verdant greenery brings added character to this grand entrance, the perfect finishing touch to subtly mark the season.
