One more.

Tacori: thanks!!

AllisonD: yay! "Kick Ass" and "inviting" are just what I'd want to hear. For the record: "Gumdrop" and "Dollhouse" are two things I was hoping NOT to hear (but have). LOL!

Packrat: yes! I am glad we took the risk ... I get a big goofy grin on my face just taking the doggie outside to do her biz. Wonder if she notices the difference. Aren't dogs colorblind?

Trishy: DO IT!

Cehra: Awwww. Glad you like it. You were soooo helpful during the process. Not sure "Potentially Purple" has the poetic flair with "Mythical" that you were hoping for ... but its no "Kale Green" either!

. Re the Red: I like it. Almost went with "Cilantro" at the last minute but DH preferred Red & had been so easy going about the whole thing it seemed the right thing to go Red. LOVE how it looks with all four colors combined at our main entry. The red will be a bit more evident when we get our screen doors re-screened with more see through material. Until then, its fine.

HollyS: Thanks Holly, just holler first & I'll fire up some quick bake crumpets!

Part Gypsy: Thanks! The purple with the greenery is just amazing in person. My fave part.

It looks fab! (I''m late here). Wish I had the guts to do color like that!

Is it my imagination or does it make your house seem bigger?

Now, how on earth did I miss the red door??!! Perfect!

Oh, BTW, hubby''s comment on your house was "Oh, wow! Nice!" He''s just a bit stodgy and quite a lot ''color-challenged'', so this was high praise from him.

Your house is totally suited for that shade of purple, and I am thrilled you went with it!!! It looks perfect, and your flower/tree shots are lovely! Congrats on getting your purple house!

Love it! Your house has exactly the right amount of character to pull off a daring color combination like that. I love old New England/New York style farmhouses like that, glad you went with something that fits your style.

Deco it looks really great! I adore the red door, it dresses it up (like a pair of studs winking out) perfectly and the color is just right, not too saturated not to pastel. YAY! I love it.
