Looking for a fun tropical gray-blue exterior paint color!
We recently replaced the siding on our Florida Keys home. Originally the house was yellow but I'd like to change it to a fresh blue color. Hoping to find a happy gray blue. Railings and trim will be white.
Thanks!

missymayl Anyone else have a gray blue? Might have to chose something a bit lighter..not sure how dark paint would weather in the beating hot sun of South Florida?

missymayl Okay the original color was yellow, now husband is saying maybe we should stick with that? Anyone have a bright (not garish) fresh yellow?

LB Interiors How about? Consentino chardonnay - 247 by Benjamin Moore is similar:

Jennifer Smith I would choose the Countryside Make over posted by LB Interiors. It really added life to the house, and made it look more attractive.

missymayl Is the consensus blue? I am worried about the house looking "too Nantucket" and not Florida Keysie. I have not ruled out a yellow.
