exterior color palette...

Today's post will be short and sweet.  The exterior color palette of our home combines multiple elements - stucco, stained wood, painted trim (not included in the photo below...but will be the color of the window trims), and brick. 

From left in the picture below...the stain color is espresso (I hid masked the other colors so we wouldn't be tempted to change our minds...), the stucco colors are total white and soft grey, the brick is a light mocha color (kind of like dark coffee with milk or one of those long dippy things that coffee drinkers enjoy...) and the door will be beach ball.


Things have been progressing a bit slowly since all of the little things like wiring, plumbing, and insulation has been installed over the past couple of weeks.  Now, the bricks have been delivered, the exterior wood is ready for stain, and the drywall is ready to go up!  I expect to really see this project start to near completion...last we heard, we were just over 40% complete!  That 7% since the earlier post sure has taken its sweet time!

So far, this has been a very exciting experience...I keep waiting to experience those moments that turn into horror stories for folks who have gone through this process.  I mean, we heard some STORIES...  So far, so good!
