Tin Lizzie
Color Consultations, Schemes & Reviews by Laura Rugh
Is Tin Lizzie exterior paint considered to be a neutral shade of grey without undertones of blue? Now that the painter has painted the eaves, several of us are seeing blue, while others aren’t. Also, it feels a bit dark. Any thoughts as to whether or not this is a good color when selling a house? The trim, soffits, garage door, and columns will be in a soft grey. Our brick is a burnt orange/red color. Many thanks!
Hi Sally,
Tin Lizzie does have a slight blue undertone. I don’t think that is a negative for an exterior, especially with the lighter soft gray. There is still enough gray in Tin Lizzie to keep it neutral. Also, I love a blue-gray paired with burnt orange/red. They are complimentary colors and work very well together.
Look for some pictures on Pinterest to help give you piece of mind. I think once it is all finished and dry, you will be really happy with it. Let me know if you would like more help through an Exterior Color Consultation!!
Thank you for reaching out, Sally!
