Paint part deux

Here's our portable paint gallery. The image resolution probably isn't good enough to read the labels, but we went with burnt umber for the lap siding and board&batten, ginger root for the shingles, "baize" for the fascia and belly band, and "sandy bluff" for the rest of the trim. They are all Historic Colors, carried by many different paint manufacturers, so Googling them should produce lots of hits. Just don't trust the color you see on the computer monitor! That's why we have so many paint samples....

Here's a shot showing all the colors except the Sandy Bluff, which is a yellow-beige color. The green (baize) looks pretty nice with the burnt umber.

I'd have some photos of the interior trim but the camera battery died after the above photo was taken. We should have more photos soon.

The flooring should start going in pretty soon, we're looking at light fixtures, and we need to finalize our countertop choices. Soo many decisions to go....it's hard to believe that (according to our contractor) we will be done in March.
