Happy Halloween! I’m so excited to be back blogging! Thank you all so much for the kind words about the birth of our little sweetie Mirabel. I can’t believe she turned one month old yesterday! It’s been such a crazy month. Having two little ones is definitely way more challenging than just one, but Wesley is a great helper and loves his little sister! I’m not guaranteeing a new post for you guys every day, but now that we are getting into a routine, things are getting easier!
I couldn’t think of a better way to return from my hiatus than with an ode to one of my favorite design elements: a turquoise front door! If only our home didn’t have a glass door. Though I can’t imagine having to decide what paint color to go with–clearly you can’t go wrong with Benjamin Moore’s Wythe Blue, that’s for sure! No matter the shade, a turquoise door is a simple yet striking way to add curb appeal and personality to your home. And I’d really love to be able to tell people, “just find the house with the turquoise front door!”
P.S. Here’s a pic!! 🙂

She’s precious! But your knew that! Wesley will be the perfect big brother, I’m sure. My daughters were 9 years apart, I think they missed out on a lot. Way easier on me however! Always love your posts, but take your time. We’re all here each time you return to enjoy the eye candy! Marie
Debbie says
Congratulations on your beautiful daughter. I really miss your posts, but will be waiting patiently.
Heidi Ferguson says
Aw!!! Thanks SOOOOO much for this post!! We are about to start building (literally within the next two weeks!!!!) and we know we wanted a light blue door. There are so many options out there and seeing the EXACT COLOR NAMES is extremely helpful. I’ve seen imagines pinned all over Pinterest but it’s rare to get a paint color with a name!!!
Your baby girl is precious! Love her old fashioned name!!! Wesley looks like he’s loving having a sissy!!! Congrats! I echo the sentiments of others, take you time. Enjoy your babies!

pam smith says
Beautiful little girl and handsome big brother too! Your post is perfect timing! I am moving in a few weeks and the home we are moving to has a red door. Not my favorite. I keep saying I want to paint it turquoise! My daughter and I both agree the Benjamin Moore Wythe Blue is perfect!
Enjoy your little ones!
Jeanne Bender says
Love and best wishes to you and your beautiful family Erin! Little girls are so much fun to dress up and it looks like her big bro loves her already! Be kind to yourself Erin, two is alot harder to devide up your attention which means that you will want to always take the back seat. But at least once a week soak in the tub with a good book!

I chose Farrow & Ball Dix Blue for my Cottage gate, it’s a beautiful, soft bue and now I can tell my guests: it’s the only cottage with a light blue gate in the street!

Love the blue doors you are sharing as I am trying to find the right door for my new home. I love BM paint and especially like Wythe Blue not sure if this can work for my dark brown cedar siding. My house is dark and needs color to lighten it up. Thanks your for ideas.
Jill Snyder says
I love the exterior colors you used on your home. Is have the front door color but would love to know what the main house color is? I need to paint our cottage and I am struggling with picking a main Color.
Thank you!
Jill

Happy Fall!
I just wanted to quickly reach out as we’re putting together a farmhouse front door story over at City Girl Gone Mom! I love your site and would like permission to feature your photo and design in the story. It would consist of a photo of your design, a blurb about it and a link back to your website.
Let me know what you think! We’d love to have you on board!
Thanks!
Best,
Tiffany

This is really beautiful. I just moved in with my partner into a new house. Would be really happy to give it this look once we decide to go for a renovation.
Thanks
