I love that it may look brown black in some light also. If you can mix in some stained timber around the place it will really balance the brown and add some extra depth.<br />I love that hubby turns frustration into hard work.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00937616081379784921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-89027244808678334722010-09-21T01:20:23.697+10:002010-09-21T01:20:23.697+10:00Nice!like that colour , so interesting...Thank you...Nice!like that colour , so interesting...Thank you for sharing it.water softenerhttp://www.kinetico.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-28375801917165488242010-09-20T21:20:32.583+10:002010-09-20T21:20:32.583+10:00Great colour choice! :)Great colour choice! :)Cornflakes and Honeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05466091794578751549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-48864813589827531062010-09-20T17:06:38.845+10:002010-09-20T17:06:38.845+10:00Wish my hubby would get all industrious when in a ...Wish my hubby would get all industrious when in a bad mood! For what it's worth, I'd either make the brown a little more 'bitter' with the addition of a little black, or go for a nice, crisp charcoal instead. Just my two cents worth, so feel free to disregard my advice. Looking good though!

There's also a colour I love in Resene. It's called Barbeque. Quite a dark brown and has a tiny hint of a maroon tone.

You can't have those orange tables without something a bit more groovy right?! :) I must say I love the contrast of white and black - always looks great.

Way more interesting than the grey. Friends just did a very very pale peppermint green with a similar dark brown trim on their Queenslander. Now, it may sound like a chocolate peppermint nightmare but it actually turned out really well. <br />I had to laugh about your painting project though - could turn out like the harbour bridge - you just get to the other end and have to start all over again! Hopefully this will not be the case.<br />MichellePaper Tree Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08136585029830449858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-85351688712297953072010-09-19T20:21:02.639+10:002010-09-19T20:21:02.639+10:00hello, i'm only a new reader to your blog, but...hello, i'm only a new reader to your blog, but personally i would move away from the brown and head towards a nice crisp black or grey like you said.. but that said, i would consider what sort of colour scheme you want/ have for your interiors. if your furniture is more towards browns & taupes, then the muddy brown will work, but if you have more grey or colourful furniture, then i would go for the neutral bright white & crisp black/ charcoal grey colour scheme. that's my 2 cents worth anyway :)captain kkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854877982209038299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-60237929782978115122010-09-19T19:50:03.935+10:002010-09-19T19:50:03.935+10:00Hmmmm you've really started something that'...Hmmmm you've really started something that's a lot of work. As to colour its so hard to say. I admit I am a bit over the dark grey and steely blue as I guess I live in a suburb where this is about quite a bit. I like a paler grey or a nice bold black if I had to choose a different colour to your brown. I think this brown may grow on me with the contrast of the white particularly if it is gloss and I honestly think it will work with what you are doing with your garden and interior which I always think is a consideration, aswell as the colour of the window glass etc. Can't wait to see more.the old boathousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095421473237572556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-2883447323563424642010-09-19T19:31:38.114+10:002010-09-19T19:31:38.114+10:00I shall be brave and say I am quite anti brown - s...I shall be brave and say I am quite anti brown - sorry. It reminds me of mission brown which should forever be banned! So I am going with the trendy dark grey or steely blue you suggested. There I have spoken and hope you will still speak to me? Can't wait to see it all finished and sounds like it won't be too long if Jason keeps going like he did today. ;-)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02994986959213977781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-28155378442234588102010-09-19T19:01:24.111+10:002010-09-19T19:01:24.111+10:00The new paint colour looks nice and fresh - it'...The new paint colour looks nice and fresh - it's hard to comment on the trim colour without seeing a larger photo of the area - I like dark grey too but I'm sure this colour will suit your place nicely xAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697932926715802541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2390135910400025884.post-60092374749972119872010-09-19T18:27:44.400+10:002010-09-19T18:27:44.400+10:00I like the trim colour.
