Good Morning Lillian,
Whati s YOUR favorite color (or your husband's, if you're married... or which color do BOTH of you like)? You can paint your front door any color you wish no matter the color of your house, as long as it says "Lilliam lives here." I have seen doors of every color and if I lived in my own place I would certainly be painting mine too. Before painting your door take a second to read the article below, I think it will be of some help :) Good Luck and thanks for using Hometalk for answers.

Contrast by picking a color that is opposite to one of the strongest colors in your brick or sided home. A photo would be helpful if a color choose you need help with😃
