Well, I just can't find it. The elusive perfect color for our house. On the left top of the pic is a grey that I think has too much green it. It is called Porch Grey. On the right is one that I think is too dark and too much purple. Over both is a lighter version of the one on the right called silver down. I like it especially with the white trim but think it might have too much of a lavender cast to it. So next I am going to try one called Italian Marble. I think it is more of a beige grey, so will take a pic and put it up in a bit.

My pink house

Well, as many of you know, my house is pink. About 4 years ago my husband and I decided to paint our dreary grey house a new color. I fell in love with a paint color at ACE hardware in Ocean Shores called Morningside. I convinced my husband it was beige with a hint of pink. It helped that he is a tad color blind, and my two sons are totally color blind. So we proceeded to paint the WHOLE house Morningside which you can see from the pic is PINK with white trim. I liked it and even they liked it. It is a cheery color. But then their friends would come over and make fun of them living in a pink house so...... Now we are repainting! I am having the hardest time choosing a new paint color. I want something neutral but I hate regular beige or tan or brown etc. So back to the greys. I have tried at least 6 different greys and can't find one I really love. So then I thought why not Tiffany Blue. We live at the beach so I can get away with brighter unusual colors that wouldn't work in a more conservative neighborhood. But then again, I feel I should go with something more neutral. So there we go back to the greys. There is one I kind of like it almost looks like it has a little lavender in it. I will post a pic of it to see what you all think.
