Painting the Porch

Since finishing the porch, a number of weeks ago, I have been trying to figure out exactly what colors to paint it. I have maroon, light green and dark green to work with as the overall color choices of the house.

This is how the work looks now. The weird thing is I have grown attached to the primer cream color of the Hardiplank.

While going ice fishing, I saw this house in Farmington, Maine, (http://tinyurl.com/lu8sxhk) and quickly asked Ron to stop so I could take some pictures. I had all the same colors I chose to paint my house with the exception of cream! The color was almost exactly the same as the Hardiplank color.

I just fell in love with the combination, and now have the missing ingredient for my house.
