Pretty exterior paint colours (for a door).

Hi,

I am looking to repaint my front door (is wooden but already painted).

I'm looking for a pretty colour (it's currently black).

I'd love a soft heather/lilac colour or perhaps a soft teal/blueish green. Nothing too bright.

I am struggling to find something in a suitable exterior paint.

Any recommendations?

Dulux centres will mix pretty much any colour you like in exterior weather shield. Someone local to us has a beautiful pale pink which looks really lovely.

Oh gosh, I used to work at one of the big DIY stores, so embarrassed that I didn't think of this! Thanks so much will investigate.

I went to B&Q at the weekend and got bright purple exterior wood paint mixed, £21 for a 1lt pot of valspar extreme weather protection paint.

I used Frenchic's Parma Violet on my PVC door, needed 3 coats but it went on really nicely and seems to be holding up quite well. From the Alfresco range
