Help Us Pick Out Our Siding!

This past weekend we began wrapping the outside of the Blog Cabin with Tyvek. “Tyvek” or house wrap is a material that is made out of polyethylene fibers, it is very thin, strong and it creates a water barrier. Once we wrap the entire Blog Cabin in it, we can then choose our siding and shutters to finish the outside of the Blog Cabin! P and I are having some trouble agreeing on what kind of siding we want and what color. We know we want a country cottage look and we want low maintenance so an imitation or vinyl siding is necessary. We have to choose a style such as barn board, cedar shingles, clapboard etc. Once we chose the style, we have to choose a color, a trim color, a shutter color and a color for our front door. Any suggestions Blog Cabin fans?

Here are some examples...

  1. I like #9! Maybe with white shutters (do you have shutters?) White picket fence, cat in the window, fire pit and wildflowers in the front of the yard!

  2. If you really want a country style cabin, I guess no. 2 would fit! I mean, the color is so close to that feeling! It's also quite stylish, and would probably give a glorious design! Haha! Anyway, the color combination of dark brown and peach is also pleasant to the eyes. If you want, you could also add some mint green effects (like that in no.9) for a lighter finish. Hmm, am I too late for suggesting? I still hope that would help. ;)
