The Color Game
Posted on April 23, 2012 by
What do you think? Sweet Tea, White Sage, & Deep Forest Pine OR Cedar Grove, Cactus Hill and Nature Trail? These either sound like names of sub-divisions, beverages on a menu or…PAINT colors! Who thinks these names up?
We want the exterior of our house to look unique and inviting as well as vacation-isk since it will be a Bed & Breakfast. We want want it not to clash with the neighbor’s house, we want it to match the hangar, and we want it to feel a bit like nature…so I am thinking of the deep chestnut color with deep green accents and of white trim. That is the Sweet Tea, White Sage and Deep Forest Green group.
On pinterest,com I have been trying to find something in just the colors I have in my mind and only am getting close. Here is one color (the sweet tea shade but not this green). http://pinterest.com/pin/229683649716091239/. And here is the inspiration for the shed which is why I am having to choose exterior colors now…we will build the shed first to store tools, etc. while we build. http://pinterest.com/pin/229683649715948090/
Still working on it.
