Third Times a Charm


Today was the third time I painted our door.  I wanted to door to match our shutters which are a dark blue.  I originally bought a blue paint, but it dried way brighter than I was expecting.  So...what to do...I decided to make my own dark blue paint by adding black to the bright blue paint.  It was a good idea...and worked, but I didn't mix enough and when I tried to do touch-ups the paint dried a different color, so I had to mix up a whole new batch to paint the door a third and final time.  It turned out really good...but I don't think I will be mixing my own paint color again anytime soon.
