The right shade of paint can transform any space into a coastal oasis, even if you are miles from the coast. In today’s post we are going to explore coastal paint colors and some adorable beach inspired front doors.

The first place to start is your local paint store. Grab paint swatch cards and bring them home to your space. Take ones you don’t even think you’ll like. Look at the colors in your space at various times of the day, in different lighting. A color that looks great in bright sunlight can look completely different in the evening.
We’ve curated a list of spaces and included the coastal colors used to give you some ideas to draw from. Painting is the easiest way to upgrade a space or front door without breaking the bank!
