Staining brick

10 years ago

I had posted on another thread about cottage garden. Hubby and I have talked and are considering staining the brick and stones of our 1960's ranch. Here is a picture, has anyone successfully had their house stained? Do you love it? We will probably be here till we die or go to a home, I'm only 37 so we will be here awhile;)

Here is a color swatch I like. Maybe muslin house and bluish shutters and garage door white posts and trim? Roof is already brown.
