help me pick exterior shutters

last year

Need to decide on shutter colors for the exterior of my house.

Siding is currently being painted BM Smoke Embers with BM Cloud Cover trim.
I want a medium blue for the shutters. Below is a pic of my top choices along with a picture of my front door.

To the left is waters edge, top right is oxford gray and bottom right is coastline. The other picture is of my front door. Thanks in advance.

House is being painted BM Smoke Embers. Shutters are below only and they are original to the house which was built in 1901.

I would pick a gray that is close to the darkest part of your roof. Pretty house.

Thank you! Was hoping for more of a blue since it’s near water in NE.

I just looked up smokey embers. I dont think that color goes well with your roof at all. When picking paint colors, roofing is a big consideration. I like the color it is now, and then would pick the darkest gray from your roofing for the shutters. Its a pretty house, and its existing color fits it nicely, and also goes with the roof nicely.

For a brief moment I thought your house is in my town...Orleans, Ma.

Thinking the blue should have a gray undertone.

The painted blue hydrangeas...too cutesy for your beautiful home.
