Color Choice for the Front Porch
Comments (12)A unanimous color choice! That just made the decision so easy, now hopefully I picked the right grey. Went with BM Cinder AF-705. I just hope the BM store is able to color match because we're using another deck coating product which they can tint. I love that Craftsman door but we're trying to hang on to the door because its original to the house. But I have been sorely tempted on many occasions because some people have that inexplicable desire to jam their face up against the glass to announce their presence and I feel my life getting shortened everytime that happens! Thank you for appreciating the charm of this old house, the inside and the outside has been a labour of love and sometimes a real test of my patience, thankfully I have this forum to come to when I'm stumped! I will post pics when its done(with the exception of the stairs because they were just built), hopefully it gets done in the next day or two, all local paint stores have been posting big signs that say 'Exterior Painting season is over!' Thanks once again for all your comments and suggestions, I greatly appreciate it....See MoreExterior paint colors choice needed this weekend!
Comments (21)I always second guess my paint choices! The house next door is white so I guess I was feeling like it's too similar but it will keep us from cooking too much in the summer at least. Maybe I can get a nice chair or bench for he porch area, to finish that space a bit more. The dead trampled Bermuda grass "lawn" certainly doesn't do curb appeal any favors and is next on the list to tackle (after rain gutters are installed... sigh. So many essential but no fun things to spend money on!) Our painters are using Kelly Moore so I asked for their fan deck rather than trying to color match to the SW and BM decks I had....See MoreFront Entrance assistance please!
Comments (7)My front door is teal, similar to Anna's above. I kept my storm door white because I have sidelights and the trim on those is white as well. I have white shutters and red brick so the white storm door ties everything together. In your case though, I'd actually be tempted to paint it black and get a black/wrought iron light....See Moreneed assistance with exterior color plan
Comments (27)Wow! You’re a rock star!! Thank you so much for your help and time trying to help us! I like the grey and my boyfriend likes the white so now we just need to put some sample colors up on the walls to make a decision....See Moreacm
