Front porch ideas??? Help!!

9 years ago

We are building a house that is tan in color (hardy board siding) with cedar shake on top with white outlined windows and transition lines. The bottom of the house is earth tone colored rock. We are going to stain the front door and the garage a dark wood color. We will also have shutters stained the same color as the door. We have cedar posts on the big farmhouse porch. My wife really wants to paint the posts white because of the house color. She says that it will give it the country look and the white color will pop. She is afraid if we stain the post they will be washed out by the color of the house. I agree somewhat because I have looked at thousands of pictures. We have also contemplated whether or not we want to put up a rail or leave the porch without. Does anyone have any suggestions? I will try to post pictures later today.
