Embrace Sunshine Vibes with a Vibrant Yellow Front Door
Warm weather is here for the time being and it’s time to embrace sunshine vibes with a yellow front door. A truly easy way to add new life to the outside of your room is to paint your door a new color. You only need a quart of paint and the color options are endless. For summer, create a warm welcome with sunny yellow.
When choosing a paint color for your door, consider the overall color scheme of your house. Yellow looks great with so many other colors. Don’t be afraid to go bold – or soft. Here, a yellow front door looks fabulous against a pale blue home. The warmth of the yellow contrasts beautifully with the cool vibe of blue.
If your home has a lot of greenery or vines, yellow is a perfect choice. The door is reminiscent of a yellow flower nestled in green leaves. This beautiful door with its half-moon spider web window would look fabulous in any color.

It could be ok on just the right house, I suppose. For some reason, I always think bright colors on the outside of a house look a bit “cheap” for lack of a better word. I’d rather see a moody navy or forest green or even a deep maroon- just my humble opinion. Love your articles! Thank you!
The front door entry area is such a fun space to decorate, so many options! I prefer a solid wood door with beautiful glass panels but if I bought a home that already had a painted door I’d have such fun changing up the colors and all the knobs and accessories as accents…and I’d add a climbing rose that would go across and down the sides! I’d buy that rabbit door knocker from Anthropologie!
Enjoy your California trip! We did a cruise once up the California coast and it was great.
I like yellow, but…those are Yellow! I do like the shape of that Edwardian door.
Wow! Those doors are really Y-E-L-L-O-W! It’s sure a happy color, isn’t it?
Not my cup of tea BUT it is my go-to summer color… INSIDE and on a wreath on the door. It’s looks so nice with blue & white.
However, FIRST comes RED, white & blue from Memorial Day until July 4th. THEN… YELLOW until September and I hear Fall calling.
