Help picking Exterior Brick/Siding White Paint Color
Comments (1)Don’t go by pictures. Have samples of each color made and try it out on your house. Then look at the samples from a distance and see how it looks in your light with your roof color. The front of the house is most important, but you might want to consider test samples on other sides of the house as well....See MoreHelp! Picking kitchen cabinet colors, need help with off-white/creams
Comments (14)Aw man, thanks for the comments guys! After being in this house with small kids for eight years, the cabinets are showing wear and there is quite a bit of water damage on many of them and some are broken (didn’t show you that photo!). So...that was where my head was at with going ahead and painting the cabinets. They are already priming today so this is a done deal! In my area, painting cabs is still a big thing (we might steer behind the times a little) and a big thing people look for in resale (we could be moving in a couple years). Honestly, it might not be trendy but I still love my granite! It hides stuff so well and never looks dirty. And I never even notice my backsplash and I just don’t care that much about it. It’s hard for me to warrant changing something just for cosmetic reasons (counter and backsplash) versus need (cabs). We got an amazing deal on the painting so I feel good about it. I’m going full steam with Antique White. After looking at it forever and being in complete decision making paralysis, that’s what I’m going with! I’m going with brass/gold knobs to add a little bit of funky and I have lots of Anthropologie-esque and plants to add character. I have a very open floor plan with my living room right there in all it’s colorful glory, so I’m thinking the lighter will look nice. I’ll be happy to post a pic when I’m done. Thanks for listening!!...See MoreI need help picking out a white exterior paint color
Comments (2)We've been happy using BM Swiss Coffee on the exterior. Like many whites, it can read much brighter outside than inside....See MoreNEED HELP PICKING WHITE EXTERIOR PAINT COLOR
Comments (1)I used BM Swiss Coffee inside for all my trim and doors in a prior home. I loved the softness of it and it never seemed cream - more of a true white. I need to ask BM if their formula has changed over the years because on the paint chip it looks more yellow. I am getting ready to paint my house and I want to use it for the trim but I want the soft white I remember....See Morechloebud
