Paint Picks

Here is another fun part of the entire process… picking out paint colors! We have always kept our eye open for inspiration, whether it be from Pinterest or from driving/walking around neighborhoods and store fronts. We knew we wanted to go with a modern and updated look, so we went to the paint store with a general idea of what colors we wanted.

We grabbed a few paint chips that we thought we would like. From here, we narrowed it down to the shades that we liked.

It’s hard to tell what the final product will be with just a small paint chip, so it’s a good idea to get a sample of the paint once you narrow it down to something you think you will like. We painted the wall outside to get a better idea of what it will look like with an entire unit painted. We let the paint dry and revisited again the next day. After trying this process at least 2 or 3 times, we finally decided on a super dark slate blue for the exterior of the house and a pop of color for the door- bright orange!
