The first home I noticed the outside elevation shows one step up to the front door. However the after photo shows 4 steps up to the door. Did you change the elevation as well? That would be a costly venture. I like the fresh airy look of pairing the mint green with white. Nice transformation
what was your source for the moulding around the door...was it prefab?
I liked the Tiffany color door. Who makes that paint color? Also like black trimmed windows.
