The exterior painting of our home is finally completed, including the entrance gate that became a dilemma. After a little deliberation I decided to forgo an accent shade altogether and paint the entire house in the same color. In the future I may try to go bold again, but for now keeping it simple is best. Take a look at a few before and after (in our home's new color) photos:
Many thanks to those who offered their opinion of my accent color dilemma. I particularly liked MT's comment on Cocoon's Facebook page.
