Thanks to all for your responses to our exterior paint color quandary. Amherst Grey was overwhelmingly favored over all the other samples I slapped up on the side of our house. This was my favorite from the beginning, but Chris was undecided. You've all convinced him :)
While your comments were convincing enough, this is the picture that sealed the deal:
And I think I might just take good old Ben's recommendation and go with Citrine (or some other yellow) as our front door color.
We could use a bright color on the front door so that it will stand out under the shaded porch.
Hopefully my husband agrees.

My blog partner/daughter and her husband had their house painted this color, and it looks great! They painted their front door a bright red. Perfection.
Love this color. I have also seen a robins egg blue used for the front door with this color - very pretty.

That is going to look so fantastic. I especially love the citrine for the front door. And you can easily change the door color in a few years to mix things up and almost anything will go well with the gray. Great choice!
Love the color. I just did our front door in Heritage Red Benjamin Moore. I absolutely love it and I get tons of compliments on it.
Good choice. Good choice. I love the idea of a yellow door!
If the husband doesn't agree, you could always paint. And then if he doesn't like it, he can repaint it. It's amazing that I'm still married.
The yellow front door was one of the first AWESOME decisions we made (now nearly 3 years ago, holy crap). DO IT! I LOVE LOVE LOVE walking into the house through a super cheery door.
I love this whole color combination, Carrie! It's going to look fabulous!
This is going to look awesome, especially with a yellow door! too fun.
I love that you are doing a yellow door with the gray. Bet it will look so purty!
yes! imagine me doing a fist pump!
I love that color combination. That's going to look gorgeous.
You found the perfect color
Beautiful! :)
Houzz is such a great resource and I think that is a great example of how good it's going to look on your house. I love citrine for the front door color too. We've got a yellow door and I love it.
I'm going to love this, and the citrine door will be outstanding!

Yay! Love it! And I definitely think a bright yellow or red door would be so happy and look great!

Yes! Awesome choice! I can't wait to see it. I mean for real. I am so excited to see it.
I love your color choice...I have a dark gray house with a Kelly green door, we have a overhang porch too. Citrine will look fabulous!
Fabulous choice! The color combo is just perfect! It's going to look be-u-ti-ful :)
Great color combinations! It will look fabulous.
The citrine is awesome for the front door. One of my favorite colors!
