Hi Heather,

Iam going to move this thread to the Decorating forum. That seems to be where all the paintinf threads land.

LOL, this forum is for Website Questions, meaning questions about the functions of the site.

To give any thoughts on colors it wuld be helpful if we could see what you are working with, could you post a pic please.

Welcome to the the site!

Hi Heather,

Originally our house was slate blue with white trim and no shutters. Seven years ago, we repainted it custard yellow, added white shutters and kept the trim white also. We love it...the greenery such as the shrubs, flowers and especially our red climbing rose (on a white lattice) really pops against the pale yellow.

Wow, that sounds so pretty. I would love to see a pic. I read somewhere on the forum that you can buy this software ,and load a pic of your house and then try different paint samples on it, that sounds neat. Thanks for the ideas
