Paint your door
A front door is an excellent way to share your Who fandom, because a painted blue door often just looks like a TARDIS in and of itself (whether you further decorate it to look like the ship is up to you). There are plenty of discussions about what the “official” TARDIS blue is, but we agree that any dark-ish blue would work, as long as you’re using the show and its products for direct inspiration. Remove hardware and lightly sand the surface, then wipe clean with a dry rag. A coat of primer, followed by a couple of coats of paint and your door will be ready for the season premiere.
