We were hit with a tornado last June, we've done tons of work to our yard and house, but have so much more to do. I would love to change the color of my front door!!!! The house is a pale creamy yellow, shutters are barn red? The front door now is a mossy green, which I love, but think it looks terrible with the house. Any ideas???

I'm sorry for what you've been through, but congrats on getting to this point! With red and yellow already in the mix, I think I'd lean towards a more neutral door; however, the link to the picture didn't work for me.

You may want to post this in home decorating, too; there have been quite a few posts over there about front door colors lately. To embed the picture, upload it to flikr or photobucket or tinypic and copy the html code here.

Black or dark gray/charcoal. I know it seems dark, but it's a nice contrast to light yellow.

Beautiful house!

I think you are on the right track with green, but you need something less mossy and more toward sage green.
