help!!!

11 years ago

So I just bought this house, and I really like the layout and the inside of the house. However, I cant stand the concrete paint outside. I would love to paint it a different color, and so I need some ideas. I would also love to paint the brick below, but I know people freak out over that. Any ideas? Please help! So clueless at this stuff.

I see that several threads are going unanswered here recently. You might want to post this on the Home Decorating forum. And include a close-up of the bricks.

Something in the cream-yellow-beige tones might go well. There seem to be a few yellow bricks among the red.

Just keep in mind that after painting the brick there is no going back( without very expensive procedures)
