Keep the color light and airy and all the same
live with it with the white for a little while otherwise, why not try painting and see how it looks? It's your house.
Its up to you, paint 1 or 2 of the doors on each end one color and the other 1 or 2 doors another color leave it like this for a few days and see how you like it, or ask a friend/parent/neighbor what they like best. Its not rocket science do not be afraid its not that scary its just paint just do it.
Why not paint the doors a pretty color to give it a little personality of its own. Depending on how small the foyer pictures or other wall decor may help
My entryway also has 4 doors (bath, pantry, basement and closet) AND the previous owner added a chair rail and wainscoting to this chopped up space. So I tried to neutralize it all with color and paint finish. The area below the chair rail is the darkest shade of beige in flat finish. The chair rail is several shades lighter in semi gloss the doors and trim are the same. The area above the chair rail is lighter still... almost white.
I really like the results.
Just paint it a cohesive color, and don't clog it up with out of place stuff. Negative space is important in decorating so the cool stuff can really stand out.
Maybe you need a break, I myself just finished painting and know what you are talking about I just painted the living room a beige color and the doors are white, I painted one of the frames beige and the other one was white NOW I like the white color so I painted the frame white last week like the other one.....Don't stress yourself out, take it one day at a time unless your in a hurry and being in a hurry sometimes doesn't always work out...Org from Baden PA....
I hear ya! and thxs. so much again!! Hope you have an enjoyable day!
