Window colors

The windows are badly in need of some love, attention, and paint. At the moment they are painted brown which is a fairly common choice of color for a house with yellow bricks.
The basement windows are in the worst shape.
Yikes! Some of the windows need professional help.

The two windows faving directly south are stained glass so that the house doesn't get too hot and so that you aren't constantly being blinded by bright sunshine. Our choice of paint needs to coordinate with these windows as well as with the black roof.

On Saturday I snuck around a bunch of people's yards and took pictures of yellow brick houses with different colored windows. I almost wish we had shutters because they are so cute!

Which color is your favorite?

Rust red?

Dark turqoise green?

Medium blue?

Light blue?

Dark blue?

I hate graffiti but you have to admit, this is a lovely shade of purple.

Dark purple? (Vote for me!)

Brown? Hello, reflection :)

Dark green?

    I didn't see one I think would look totally amazing, but I am putting in a NON vote for the green. I love green but it looks really weird next to the bricks.

    I absolutely love following your Danish house fix-ups already. Keep them coming!
    Also, I like the purple.

    I'm going to have to go with Morten on the dark blue. I think all your windows are so cool. They look like something out of a story book.
