I will admit it, I am not crazy about my front porch - no character, slightly boring.
I tend to look at the big things to change - columns, cornice, side lights.
That I don't notice so much the things that I can easily change.
While I was reading an article in Southern Living,
it listed common mistakes that homeowners make.
One that caught my attention is having a front porch light that is too small.
It's seems funny that I have never noticed this before.......
but indeed, mine was too small.
I started looking around and found this light at Lowe's - during a sidewalk sale for $10.00
It was HUGE........I was so excited, I grabbed it up and headed home.
When I opened the box, I found the porch light was a taupe color with distressed edges.
I really liked the color but not sure that it would go with my door.
I am hoping this might look better once my fall wreath is up.

So, I need your help my newest....bestest.....blogging friends
Should I :
Paint my front door? If so, what color....gray, taupe, red, white...Oh my!
Paint the porch light black to match the door?
Or does it look okay......and I need to leave it alone, already?
Thanks for stopping by and please let me know what you think,
I would love to hear from you!
Thanks, Traci
