Front door color for our rustic beach cabin?
Comments (58)I love your beach cabin and location! Your door color is great, too, and you don't need to do anything different about your cushion or pillows. ETA I'm going hunting at a flea market in a few hours for a rustic coffee table for my future front porch - something like yours would be a great idea. Friends of mine are giving me a couple of rocking chairs that they'd gotten for free, but which don't work at their place....See Moredecorating a rustic farmhouse/Cabin style home
Comments (27)Here is a home with a mix of white and wood trim - I would leave the beautiful trim wood, but if there are rooms with cheaper wood trim, those could go white. https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sale/Pacific-Grove-CA/fsba,fsbo,fore,cmsn_lt/pf,mmm_pt/house_type/19323966_zpid/33300_rid/globalrelevanceex_sort/36.65933,-121.861554,36.568252,-121.980858_rect/12_zm/? If you have solid wood doors, don't paint them, though do what you like to hollow core or MDF doors. Wood with white trim is a pretty combo: Painted wood panel doors can be a pain to upkeep - the painted door show more scratches and the wood moves with changes in temp and humidity causing hairline cracks at the joints. Wood paneled doors are classic - less susceptible to changes in paint / style trends I have a similar kitchen which I did in a vintage style without painting the cabinets. I used the Kohler Whitehaven "short apron" style farm sink which can be installed on a standard sink base cabinet: https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~93784356 https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~93784291 If you don't want to do a farm sink, but give the feel of one, curtain the sink base. This is my basement kitchenette which I put together with some of my original kitchen cabinets (refinished) and my old cast iron sink. https://www.houzz.com/photos/my-pics-work-in-progress-phvw-vp~65270573 Some inexpensive ideas for decor are vintage china plates (I spent less then a few dollars on many of mine), botanical art, floral art and vintage finds....See MoreWhat can we do to improve the looks of the house & landscaping?
Comments (32)Here is a picture looking out from the front porch of our home. We were working there last night and the sunset was beautiful so I snapped a picture! You can see there are a lot of trees already on the property so didn't know if that would change anyone's ideas for landscaping. As much as we loved Dig Doug's idea, having a tree there would block this view so maybe a bush could replace this?!...See MoreWe are going for something rustic. We want to paint the outside, front
Comments (8)I like Yardvaark’s sketch and agree that landscaping and a new walk will help. For house color, I would want a color on the siding that is more brown and less greige to work better with the brick. Or look at some of the colors that were traditionally used for Craftsmen homes. It won’t look like a Craftsmen, but the colors will most likely work with your brick. You can try out paint colors by uploading the photo of your house to the website of Sherwin Williams (or likely other large paint companies). I would paint the garage door the same color as the siding, whatever you choose for that....See MoreShannon_WI
