Moment of truth...The house is painted! I've been pretty nervous today because it's a big commitment to chose a house color. And I really hope I picked right :)
The trim was painted first, a nice soft buttercream color, and next the siding, a dark steely gray. To be honest, the color isn't quite what I expected from the dark, warm gray swatch painted by the front door a few weeks ago, but I really like it! I can't wait to see what it looks like when the plastic is all off and you can see the contrast between the siding, trim & windows.

| The siding color is not perfectly represented here. You can see some of the trim color around the windows and on the upper part of the columns. |

| Better glimpse of the siding color. It's not quite this dark in person though. |
