We used San Marco paint, which has their own color palette, and our goal was a paint color that was neutral leaning towards taupe rather than yellow or gray. We must have tried over 30 colors of paint.<br /><br />We created a mini brick sample wall with trim on the top, and faced it in the same direction as the front of the house so we could see how the colors looked in the different light of the day. <br /><br />Two colors we liked that were standard were SW relaxed khaki, and BM grant beige. The relaxed khaki was too tan for what I wanted, and the grant beige was excellent but we could not deepen it to 200% because of the pastel base. So we started custom mixing.Things That Inspirehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04405995431610377305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3422669494853882483.post-85246413028707862732011-12-05T03:22:20.513-05:002011-12-05T03:22:20.513-05:00I love lanterns and it&#39;s great to know of a good resource!

I took a mental note of it for when the time comes. We are going through the angst of choosing outdoor lighting right now and I think are going to end up having things made, thanks for the resources...always good to know of new possibilities!
