Paint palette

Here's my paint color palette: we're keeping the soft yellow as the main body color, also the white trim. The new shake siding in the gables will be the grey/lavender color and the shutters and new front door will the the steely eggplant color. The dark color is not as dark here, as I painted it over yellow. A 2nd coat should darken it to nearly charcoal with a hint of plum.

Perhaps I like contrast too much! I think the light color is too light (but then my monitor plays tricks on me, as you know!) I can ALMOST see using the dark color as it is and something REALLY deep for the other color. I might have to do a drive-by and give you a "live" opinion!

BTW, the pics in your "Subs" post didn't come up for me. Hmmmm.

We had fun with you all yesterday! :)
