| Thanks for the suggestion but it's definitely buckheadhillbilly I am looking for. Their home is finished so I am guessing they don't get on this forum much now but maybe someone knows about their brick details. |

| Sorry one more question! Which mortar did you use? |

| We used Ivory Buff. We did a sample of desert buff, too, but the Ivory Buff gave us the look we wanted. I have some photos of the two in the bog post in the link below. |

| Thanks so much for all of your info! Your home is beautiful and I am sure you are enjoying it!!! |
|
| I've seen great fretting over which of the dozens of mortar colours work best. Funny thing is that after a few years they all age, blend and look pretty much the same anyway. |
