We were recently contacted by a couple in Nashville, Tn. who restore houses there. They were interested in the color palette that was used on the Pumpkin House. I've included it here for your information.
This was a good exercise for us to document these, so thanks! Unless noted, they are all Sherwin Williams SuperPaint, Satin Latex

The "Pumpkin House" was the name given to our home by the neighborhood we live in, the Houston Heights. This Traditional Victorian "Painted Lady" is where we've decided to raise our family and put down roots. This blog is dedicated to the upkeep, care, blood, sweat and tears that go into owning a Victorian home. The Pumpkin House is as much a part of us as we are of it.
