We recently purchased this 615 sq ft house only we ordered ours with black windows. We are leaning towards Sherwin Williams Salute but I am terrible about second guessing myself. I really appreciate any input :) PS I am not afraid of color so give me your ideas!

Comments (4)Thanks, lyfia, yes, I wanted to post over there but I could not find any instructions on how to post photos there. Luckily I just googled the net for those instruction for Gardenweb posts and just found a poster who had the same problem and got an answer, so using that info I just reposted my question over there. Is there a somewhere on the Garden Web homepage where they give official instructions on how to post pictures on the forums?...See MoreNeed paint color advice please
Comments (3)Can you use a red in this area? Will it clash with any of your other colors? If not, that is a perfect place for red since any red with blues in it tends to dull down unless you have lots of sunlight and if so, it virtually glows....See MorePaint Color Advice Please - light gray/bluish
Comments (5)Thank you very much megs1030 for those suggestions of Quicksilver and Icicle. We’ll take a look at those colors. Patricia Colwell, thanks for writing as well. Actually, our trim color will be a white - just not a stark white. It will not be a cream color. celerygirl, thank you as well for the Ice Cube color suggestion. We have a few other colors to consider now, so thank you all. Any other wall color suggestions would be welcomed. We love the idea of a grayish blue for a beach condo, just not too dark of a gray or too baby or too bright blue. Something serene and relaxing, like Reflection, just maybe a bit bolder would be ideal. We’re not too keen on greenish grays. Thank you!...See MoreExterior paint colour advice please!
Comments (2)One option is to chip off a small portion of the exiting paint and take it to a paint store. They will be able to color match it so you will know what you're starting with to match or compliment....See MoreJennifer Erickson
2 years agoWe will be building a big wood covered porch. The wood will come from giant cedar we have to take down. Do you think that will be enough of the wood element? I have also thought about doing a cedar trim around the windows and doors, too much? What about no trim? With the windows being black that might just be enough. Sorry for the rambling questions and thank you so much for the help! I also love the Ikea chairs :)
