Ideas for exterior paint color with red brick

7 years ago

It is time to paint our siding! I would like to try different colors on the siding, garage door and shutters (maybe the front door). The roof is light gray. We are not going to paint the brick, and we are keeping the shutters.

What are your ideas? I would love to hear your thoughts! Thank you!

    I think red would be charming. I like the shade of your brick.

    I'd remove shutters from the lower windows.
