Please help me choose exterior paint colors for Ocala block house
Comments (4)I'm in agreement with you that for your situation something of low contrast would be best. You could have the shutters more or less match the house color (or even go ligher, say a cream color) or a soft green with yellow tones to it. I would let the landscaping provide the color (and I'm so hoping you're not doing grass in your tropical environment) and let it be the lush counterpoint to your cool-looking light colored house. I think it would be beautiful....See MorePlease help me choose fabric for my curtains (Pics included)
Comments (10)Thanks kiko. I am not keeping the couch I am going to replace it with the goodwin sectional in dove grey from west elm when I get the chance. My built ins were built by a very talented friend and have been wonderful. It hides ALL of the Guitar Hero/Rock Band mess and provides storage for family board games, dvds, dvd equipment, and my endless supply of photo albums. Here is a link that might be useful: Goodwin Sectional...See Morelots of pics to help you help me with paint for kitchen- please
Comments (6)I did pick up a sample of Wyndham Cream, and also Hawthorne Yellow. The first coat of each is drying now. The cream color is so pretty but I'm afraid it will just look off-white. Have to give it another coat and look a few times.....I do think I am going in another direction compared to the colors I posted first...I think those will compete too much. Any others to consider? thanks again! J...See MoreLots of PICS of paint tests - please help me choose!
Comments (27)Don't even know how many homes I've put RG in at this point. I will tell you that I don't put RG and Blonde together much any more unless there is substantial natural light. Reason being you can hardly tell the difference between the two. In a couple of homes that's worked out well. Blonde was just a snidge lighter than RG so it all looked like the same color, but in the individual spaces the lightness of Blonde helped *lift* that area whereas the RG would have been too dark. If a definite difference between areas is desired, I pair RG with Believeable Buff. BB ended up being what several people thought Blonde would have/should have looked like next to RG. Had a couple clients repaint Blonde with BB because they thought there would be more of a difference. I suggested only partial repaints for them because RG worked out great just needed to tweak the contrast with BB. If you sample in your space and you can easily see a diff between Blonde and RG, it should be fine. Just be aware and really look before you decide. Don't assume RG and Blonde are a good pairing just because of how they are ordered on the strip....See Moreshelleyjr
