What a striking improvement! You chose the perfect color for the spot.

I really like it! It makes the plants in front of it "pop" even more.

A green door is a natural choice for a gardener. It looks great!

Jim Lowe The Green Door Lyrics:
[Tick-tock sound.]

(Midnight, one more night without sleepin'.)
(Watchin' till the morning comes creepin'.)
(Green door, what's that secret you're keepin'?)

There's an old piano and they olay it hot,
Behind the green door.
Don't know what they're doin', but they laugh a lot,
Behind the green door.
Wish they'd let me in so I could find out what's
Behind the green door.

(Knocked once, tried to tell 'em I'd been there.)
(Door slammed, hospitality's thin there.)
(Wonder just what's goin' on in there.)

Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smokey cloud,
Behind the green door.
When I said, "Joe sent me," someone laughed out loud,
Behind the green door.
[ Find more Lyrics on www.mp3lyrics.org/ooEw ]
All I want to do is join the happy crowd,
Behind the green door.

[Instrumental break featuring honky tonk piano.]

(Midnight, one more night without sleepin'.)
(Watchin' till the morning comes creepin'.)
(Green door, what's that secret you're keepin'?)
(Green door, what's that secret you're keepin'?)
(Green door.)

Love the door. Looks to be about the same shade I just painted my little storage shed!
