No More Pink Door?

It has been less than 18 months since I painted my house chartreuse and my front door flamingo pink, colors I had fallen in love with and picked out long before I had even had a house.

As much as I loved my color choices, my dad has hated them, but because it was my house he didn't complain. Now there is some work being done to the house that will cause the repainted of part of the exterior. So now I have options - should I stick with my super bright house and pink door, or should I throw my dad a bone and go with something new that would be more to his liking. Before you go and say "hey, it's your house not his" I will point out that 1) he is the one doing all the work to my house, and covering some on my supplies, 2) my house is wicked small so repainting the entire thing would only take a few hours (that includes multiple coats), and 3) I wouldn't repaint with a color I didn't like as well.

Right now I am thinking about these colors from Glidden for the walls:

Amethyst Haze


Grey Heather


Lavender Cloud


Polished Pewter


Warm Grey Flannel


Smokey Mauve


And maybe Black Mahogany for the front door


I would keep the trim white.

What do you all think? Am I completely nuts for even thinking about it?
