My friend Lisa had time off of work for vacation and said that she wanted to help me paint my front door. Can't argue with that! I had already put putty in the holes the night before, so Lisa and I got started by removing the hardware, sanding, priming and finally put on two coats of turquoise paint!

| Before |
 |
| Putty |
 |
| Sanding |
 |
| Ready to Paint! |
 |
| Stopped by the Paint Store for some Riviera Paradise! |
 |
| Primer first...it was a little brighter than the actual color. |
 |
| LOVED it immediately! |
 |
| It only took one coat of primer! |
With two people to do one door and plenty of primer left, we decided we might as well throw in the back door too!
 |
| Sanding the back door was MUCH more work than the front had been. |
 |
| Primer is done! |
 |
| 1st coat goes on...see how it's a little darker than the primer? |
 |
| Priming the back door. |
 |
| 2nd coat is on front door! |
 |
| After...LOVE IT!!! |
Isn't it crazy how just a little paint made the front of my house look completely different? I'm so happy that my pots match perfectly too!
Since we are living in a Fixer Upper, there are always projects that need to be done. Do you have something that you want to paint or a project that you 'd like to get started?
