It's the same home, but the updated paint color makes it look like a brand new home.

Exterior Paint Colour
Comments (37)I don't know about colours. My suggestion (if you are going to paint two colours) is to paint the area below the trim under the large window the same colour as the rest of that wall. Paint only the recessed area of the front entrance and main floor window a different colour. It'll look more dramatic and clean if the second colour is only in the recessed area and doesn't spread to the other wall....See MoreMy drab dining area needs so much help
Comments (8)Hello Linda, Yes I like both ideas- shopping and cladding from Jonathan and Reclaimed Flooring.. Certainly a way to introduce a warmer element to go with the dining table.. You could have cladding up to dado height and introduce a grey wood if you prefer the grey colour scheme.. A Cour or Jute rug could be nice underfoot too as this is a further texture.. Then on the wall perhaps a large mirror.. It's fantastic when dining and gives a lovely ambience to the room and interesting focus.. Another thing you could do is add something to the rear wall that functions as display.. Even empty as the one below is can look fantastic! This idea can also lend itself beautifully to the idea of a room divider.. Have a think about moving the table slightly under the light fitting and then you could perhaps have a lower pendant.. If you mix textures this will give a lovely cosy feel... The blinds are interesting too and so all these elements could tie in rather nicely.. Add a nice bowl or something to the table perhaps.. It doesn't always have to be a lot to have a big impact! : ))...See MoreMy drab brown and cream lounge
Comments (13)I have taken on board about the tie backs and agree they are a bit dated. What I would really like is a harvest oak laminate floor with pale blue/grey walls and cushion cover that would introduce some blue. I just wish I could afford to replace the bulky brown suite but that's a no no. Do anyone have any thoughts about these colours. I have an awful habit of just getting round to doing things minutes before they are last years fashion!! Thank you everyone for your ideas....See MoreExterior paint colour
Comments (3)Are you going to paint the window frames? If so I would make them darker than the render colour. I recently painted my render and I'm really pleased with the colour. We replaced the windows - the colour is Teknos matched to Light Grey Farrow and Ball. Here is a before and after. Here is a before and after, almost finished....See More

How do you think it would look on my house? I am in between two light grey homes. The colors above looks like it has a hint of purple to it which would pull out the purple plants and highlight the green ones. Looking for any and all suggestions!
