Trim, Baby, Trim!

It constantly amazes me how painted trim can update the look of a house.


Doug spent Saturday turning our cracked and weathered trim into primed trim. Now the house doesn't look quite like the "handyman special" we bought.
This trim around the garage doors actually doesn't look as bad as some of the other doorways

But Doug was faster than I - he had the bad ones painted by the time I got the camera out!
I love having a handy guy around the house. 


I am thinking that perhaps white isn't the right color for our trim, though. Any ideas? We're definitely going to have a red door, but everything else is up for grabs. Dark blue? Green? Since the siding is a yellow beige, I definitely don't want yellow! Grey, maybe? 


Let me know what you think - and I'll take it under consideration!

  1. I vote Dark Blue. Yes, yellow is out, gray might be ok, but only if you get a dark gray. I think Dark Blue would help set off the grass in the yard, too :)
