Finishing What I Started... Painting my Entry Doors

I have a bad, bad habit. I love coming up with home improvement and DIY projects around the house. I love started those projects and jump in head first, gung-ho. And then... I get ...»
frustrated. I run into problems. I run out of time. Such is the case with my front doors. A year and a half ago, I made the decision to paint them and started working on them, but never finished. Thanks to 'encouragement' from my husband and some gorgeous spring weather, I finally buckled down and finished what I started last week. I finally painted the doors in Benjamin Moore's Wythe Blue and got the front of the house finished and ready for spring! #MayProjects #DIY

doors before floors?

apparently so......I learned this today the hard way. Got laminate floors installed in July, and THEN decided I wanted new interior doors. I love my doors, which were installed today, ...»
BUT, since the floors were installed first, I now have a gap or two where the new frame doesn't cover the flooring. I am posting this for someone questioning which order to do this in. The funny thing is, my coworker and I just had this discussion this summer because she was doing both at the same time.

I now have to call back the flooring installer and hope he can do something for me that doesn't involve pulling up the floor and recutting. (which will not happen as far as I am concerned.) I did go purchase a new threshold and something called Pergo Sealant, which I may have to resort to to fill the gaps.

    floor to the wall then replace them or you add some beading to the gap to stop it being a gap - obviously things in the UK are very different than in the US.

  • Consider your home's style and time period, but don't let it limit you!  This home, while older, looks amazing with a lime green door.  What a way to update it!
  • Red is supposed to bring luck, so why not put those powers to your front door?  This red door adds pop to an otherwise gray home.
  • Is there a more perfect color than turquoise? What a happy way to come home.
  • Also consider what your door will look like from the inside.  Here, the black door acts as a frame to a lovely yard.  This understated traditional design is calming and sophisticated.
  • Don't forget to dress up your door, too.  Like jewelry, door knockers and kickplates add that something special.
  • BAM!  Tangerine.  Love it!
