Would love exterior paint color suggestions, please
Comments (8)There are literally thousands of colors and shade variations to choose from so it's really comes down to personal taste. We just picked our color on our new construction. We are in a woodsy setting and are big fans of earth tones to blend the house into it's surroundings. We have Hardiplank siding and chose the timberbark color (a Hardiplank color) The sample looked like a taupe brown but once the whole home was painted it looks much darker. Keep that in mind. It's pretty dark but it's growing on us. I'm told it will probably lighten up as time goes on as well. If it were me, I'd try to blend some earth tone shade with your beautiful stone work. Good luck...See Moreneed exterior paint suggestions please :)

Comments (188)The cosmos will look great and is so easy, and you could add some poppies too, they are easy to sow as well and just like cosmos, if you leave some go to seed, they will come back again and again. It's also fun to buy a wildflower mix appropriate for sun or shade, which ever you have and just be surprised by the riotous mix of whatever shows up and all the butterflies that come to visit. You can get the seed type, or the type that looks like dust bunnies (for real!) that you scatter over your lawn and water in very well, or the kind that looks like a fuzzy shelf-lining that you roll out over your lawn or wherever you want your flowers to come up and water that in well....See MoreExterior paint suggestions please!
Comments (5)Remove the awnings , if you need sun and heat protection do solar shades inside those awnings hide 1/2 the house.IMO white is the wrong color for the house you need to respect the stone and the roof both of which to me say go a light taupe . Also the gargae the same color . The steps and handrail need to be darker and not white storm door , in fact if all you need the storm door for is a screen remove it and get a phantom screen then do the front door in a color that you like depending on the taupe you choose....See Morelittlebug zone 5 Missouri
