The BIG red door

Yesterday I went past the house and they had painted the door frame....



I was thinking What the Hey, I hope that is the undercoat. I asked the painter to do the door frame 'black' the same as the gutters and window frames.

I asked hubby this morning to please go by the house and make sure they where going to paint the laundry door frame black as well. As I didn't remember mentioning that to the builder.

When hubby got to the house he rang me in a state of shock, apparantly everything was that purple colour. Our gutters where listed as being colorbond "Monument" apparantly the frame of the door there is Monument. That is Monument!! That purple.

Holy crud can you imagine all the gutters, downpipes and door frames that colour purple with the red door!!

I said to him over the phone, offer him cash or offer to go buy the paint, anything to change it to as close to black as possible.

Apparantly for $100 the painter had some black in his car for another job that he would use on ours. (I wonder if the other job is going to get an undercoat of momument with black on top now)

So here we go..

Coming over the hill into the estate you can see the laundry door








Smooth finish door - see no wood grain effect - we had to sign a disclaimer for that
