Exterior colors Ok?
Comments (12)My favorite mulch is pine straw and it looks like you might have an abundant and free supply close by if those are pine trees behind you. Seriously, it is great natural mulch, doesn't wash out of your beds like those nuggets everyone loves. Shake it on thickly and you're done. I don't care for dyed mulch either; second choice would be cedar or pine bark mulch (again, not nuggets). Very attractive house. I like the 2nd option also. But you might keep playing around with some other shades and find something you like even better....See MoreDo you like
Comments (14)Not my cup of tea, really. But then, most probably wouldn't care for the color of my car--it's an FJ in Voodoo Blue with a white roof. If you're not sure what color that is, just picture Cookie Monster. But either one--burnt orange or Voodoo Blue--should be easy to spot in a parking lot. It's such a convenience to have a car that stands out from all the white, black and champagne colored cars out there....See MoreDo you like the colors of your potted Aloe plants?
Comments (11)Rob, I can see such pretty blue hues coming from that one. It's beautiful. Here are a coupel others I really like for color... I like the blues and green and how this one opens up a bright color in the middle of light green. It changes colors with the season. This one is the same as above only no variegation which is strange. More of blacker, mocha leaves called the 'black gem' Also a black gem with varying colors...Funny no stripes or white like the above pictures I first posted, but all from the same plant. More deep greens and purples and mocha....See MoreAm I being too picky about this paint color?
Comments (23)The wisdom of painting a house before you put it on the market is not really the point here, except that painting the whole house a "neutral" colour was what the former owners of this house undoubtedly thought they were doing. This current home owner bought the house in spite of the colour, not because of it and is now faced with the not inexpensive task of repainting. All that said, my main point is that it is impossible to pick the optimal complex neutral paint colour to go on these walls without knowing what your decor is going to be. Even if you are using all you old existing furniture, the light exposure your new home gets may render the colour used in your previous home differently. And no, you don't have to paint the whole house the same colour. You're not matching the floor, you're matching bedding in the bedrooms, upholstery, area carpets and drapery in the LR, and perhaps a shower curtain or the wall tiles in the bathroom....See More- 8 years ago
