Hi Sharon,
I just read a recent blog entry that you used Cabot paints for your cottages. (shown below) By chance, do you know what color gray tone you used? In your blog, you also mentioned you used federal blue cabot paint for your garage. Do you have a picture so we can get an idea of how blue it truly is? We’re trying to figure out how to paint a home in the Hudson Valley and from the cottage shots I saw, I do like the colors you chose.
Thanks. Nicole Bell
Hi Nicole,
Thanks for writing! Glad you like our Cottage colors. It was tough to find this grey blue color. All I can say is get a bunch that you think look close and test, test, test! Also, wait at least 3 days for it to dry and check it out at all different times of the day as the light really makes a difference.
Here is a before and after photo of the Garage, using the cabot federal blue. It’s a little bluer then the Cottages and we really like it a lot. Next time we paint we’ll most likely go with it. I hope this helps and good luck with your project. Please post some photos of it when you’re done.
Best,
Sharon
