Paint is a great idea, but without taking care of the overgrown and clumpy shrubs and plantings, you're aren't going to get the impact you want. Since you recently did the door, I'd invest in a landscaping overhaul and then see how you feel about the color to go with your new plantings. If you put in the garden this fall, you should be able to tell next spring how things are going and see where you want to take the paint. Here is a favorite house and garden of mine. Something similar could totally change your home, with or without a new paint job. Click to see it in different stages and what the owner did at different times.
