Exterior Home Paint Palette

I am often asked about our house colors, and I matched our colors to create a Dutch Boy Exterior Home Paint Palette.

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Dutch Boy. All opinions are 100% mine.

Exterior Home Paint Palette

  • Painted Brick: Our brick paint color is very similar to Dutch Boy 016W – Worn Pages.
  • Trim: Our trim color matches Dutch Boy 440-2DB Rhino-ed Gray.
  • Front Door: Painted in Dutch Boy 427-6DB Cattails

If you want more details on our front door, you can see more in this post.

I painted all the other exterior doors in a color that is very similar to the trim on our home – Dutch Boy Rhino-ed Gray.

Dutch Boy Rhino-ed Gray Paint

This is the side front door of our home and the Rhino-ed Gray is the perfect complement to our painted brick.

I painted our side garage door in the same color.

And also painted our patio doors in the back of our home.

I used Dutch Boy Platinum Plus Cabinet, Door & Trim Paint which is a water-based alkly enamel that goes on silky smooth.

I love the look of the semi-gloss, but I opted for satin since the rest of my home exterior is similar.

I love this paint because it is thick and coats well. It works well for exteriors as well as interiors, and I also used it to paint our home library bookshelves.

When looking for exterior door colors, I knew I wanted a warm gray to compliment our off-white painted brick.

Exterior Paint Colors for Trim and doors

I narrowed it down to two paint colors.

Best Warm Grays:

  • Dutch Boy 439-2DB Scalloped Gray
  • Dutch Boy 440-2DB Rhino-Ed Gray
Warm Gray Exterior Paint Colors

They are both beautiful warm gray paint colors, but I obviously ultimately decided on Rhino-Ed Gray because it best matched my home’s trim color.

Exterior Paint and Trim Colors

I am often asked about our exterior paint and trim colors. Unfortunately I don’t have a brand and paint colors for you. However, I did have them color-matched, so you can get the same colors if you’re looking for similar exterior paint and trim colors!

Exterior Paint and Trim Colors

Painted Brick

The brick is painted a soft creamy white. I do love the color – especially in the summertime against the green foliage and blue skies. I don’t love how it looks against white snow, but I would have it painted the same color today regardless.

I had it color-matched using BEHR Marquee Paint – Base 4450 in exterior flat:

  • CLRNT: 384
  • BL: 35
  • CL: 132
  • LL: 220

Painted Trim

The Trim is all painted in a greige color.

It was also color matched using BEHR Marquee Paint – Base 4450 in exterior flat:

  • CLRNT: 384
  • DL: 310
  • FL: 258
  • YL: 164

Last summer I replaced most of the landscaping which was original to our home, and you can see more on that HERE. It was a DIY project which made a huge difference and added so much curb appeal.

I added lots of black accent pieces to contrast the lighter paint colors of our home.

I share the sources for all our exterior decor pieces in this post. I also share in detail the plants I used in our exterior makeover.
