It's what you like but, neither would be my choice. I've seen yellow/gold disasters

Here is white raisin IRL. I don't think it is actually too out there. Picture looks like it was taken on an overcast day. Where I live overcast days are rare, sunny and bright is the norm.

I like the White Raisin, and like the aqua door with it. It's more bold than the Concord Buff, but in a good way. The white trim and the roof go well with it. I am biased, because my house is yellow. It seems that people either love or hate yellow exteriors. Since the only shutters are on the little window, I think I'd do them in the same color as the front door.

I like the white raisin with the drizzle door, but I think I'd do the shutters also in the white raisin since they're the only shutters. Rather than having two splashes of color sticking out, I'd keep them monochrome with the rest of the siding, or go 50% darker with the White Raisin on the shutters, and allow them to just add some architectural detail to the window.

I like the white raisin. I am not liking the single set of shutters in contrasting color...I actually think I would prefer "no shutters". Could we see your mock-up without them??

I agree with Tib and Tuesday about the shutters. I would do them in non contrasting or lose them. I think the white raisin is lovely and looks so nice on your home. You have a very pretty home!

I don't like the bright white trim any better with the white raisin than with the red...

The White Raisin is too much for me, i prefer the Compatible Cream (stupid name though). I would not use the taupe shutter unless you use taupe more than once. In my opinion the only time you use a color once is for the door. I really like taupe, white and yellow, so I would do the door in a very glossy taupe.

resse,

Very cute home. Like the color palates proposed. Agree re: white window trim as the best option with white windows.

Speaking of windows. Since the window spacing is a bit wonky, most noticeable on the second level, what if you painted the vertical house trim the same as the body color of the house? This could help disguise the disparate spacing. The horizontal trim between the roof and the body is also a consideration.

And, if you don't want to change out the porch posts/columns, you could also go with the house color here. As always, Photoshop is a great tool.

Good luck with your painting project.

Very cute house, I like both versions and agree about the shutters, in that I would remove them entirely. Instead of a darker teal door, I might go with something a few shades lighter. If you use the golden yellow, I would also go a couple of shade lighter in that regard too. I think the reason the White Raisin looks good on the sample picture may be because the house is larger. On a smaller home, the bolder yellow may not work as well. I know this isn't an option you were thinking about, however there is a house similar in size to yours not far from where we live and it's the most unexpected color of teal, very similar to this and in person, it is so pretty!

I love White Raisin -- what a beautiful color. I also like the shutters on the small window; they add quirky interest to an otherwise plain facade. White Raisin/Fawn Brindle/bright white trim looks like a great combination on my monitor, and a teal or aqua door would look terrific. Nope, can't criticize your choices at all!

I can't decide! I love both!
