Stone or no stone?
Kathryn Nelson
7 years ago
We are about to brick our new home build. It will be a whitish brick. Board and batton will be used for minor parts. I'm looking for an overall whitish home so I'm struggling with a stone that will compliment the home without changing the overall color. Originally we thought we would put a limestone for a different texture. Now, I'm not sure I need it. Help please!
