Exterior Trim Paint Colors

Beth Neel Massey

13 years ago

I need ideas of colors to paint the trim of my home since the brick is an orange/tan color. I just had new vinyl windows put in, which are white (I wish I'd gotten tan)...I don't know that I'll paint them so I wondered about painting trim white? What about front door & shutters? Suggestions?

Personally I love the look of brick and a dark green trim, you could look into that.

You have white, so work with it. Take off those shutters, right now. Do you have the option of putting mullions in your windows? If so, do that. Paint your front door white and the screen. I see know front lights…any outlets on the front? This pix is of a house much larger than yours, but the concept is the same. White, white and no shutters.
