Spiders & Stripes

It's been a fun summer of exploring our new city and working on outdoor projects. Landscaping, lighting, painting the screened porch and front door were all on the list. I've been able to get a few done. My latest project was painting the front door. The inside is painted a deep charcoal that I love but the door has so much character I wanted to do something different for the exterior. The front of the door is tongue and groove planks so I thought it would be fun to paint the planks alternating stripes. I chose the same colors I used for the screened porch. I love how the stripes look with the spider web window! Now I'm on the hunt for a new door knocker...
