Blue

Neutral colors are the safest route when choosing exterior paint, but don’t be afraid of color. This brick house from @theorganizeddesignco is painted dark blue (Waterloo by Sherwin-Williams) with gorgeous results.

The warm gray-blue color makes the cedar wood and white accents pop. What was once a forgettable exterior in transformed into the shining jewel of the neighborhood!

German Smear

German smear isn’t exactly a paint color; it’s a technique that gives your brick a charming, old-world style.

To achieve the look, mortar (usually white) is spread across the face of a brick facade with a trowel, then partially wiped off with a wet sponge. The dried mortar gives the wall a lighter color and more texture, reminiscent of a European cottage.
