Front Door Facelift

You guys! We finally did it! I revamped our front door and I couldn’t be happier. If this doesn't give a statement when you walk up to it then I don’t know what does. I’m obsessed with the color and the boldness. I seriously couldn’t love it more.

Honestly, I have hated this red front door the whole time we have been in this house. It didn’t feel like us, and it really needed a facelift regardless. When I was trying to decide what to do, I knew finding the right paint would make all the difference. That’s why I was sold when I found Modern Masters Front Door Paint and Zinsser Bulls Eye 1-2-3® primer.

If you’re looking for a quick weekend project that packs a major punch, look no further than re-painting your own front door! The entire project was less than $100 and I can’t get over how different it looks!

The entire project was beginner level and just a few simple steps. I started by disassembling all the hardware, the old house numbers, old door knocker, etc. Then I used wood filler for all the old holes, and sanded down the entire door. This was probably the most time consuming part of the project!

Second, I primed the door and frame to get it ready for the paint. It was a hot weekend here, so the primer and paint all dried really quickly. I was able to paint the door pretty quick after the primer was on, and then applied the second coat after that.

All in all it was 3 times painting, but it didn’t take too long!

After using this paint I can honestly say the combo is fantastic, and I couldn’t be more pleased with how it turned out! You can find it at your local Home Depot or Star Scenic or online through Amazon, or Paint Supply.
