What colour is your shed/cabin/garden building?

[tizwozliz]

Might be a question for a different topic rather than gardening but I'll try here.

We've just built a very nice garden building/store and need to decide what colour to paint it but struggling to settle on a colour. Endless shades to choose from and I'm not a good decision maker at the best of times.

Anyone care to share what colour they have (photos would be fab)

Looks lovely! You have excellent taste

My little shed is embarrassed next to your massive cabin now!

Looks great.
Our shed (an old stable) is a very dark green & brick and over 140yrs old (& looks it), I'm not sure I could imagine it another colour.

I've been painting our raised beds black and they look fab, our greenhouse is natural cedar and the combination looks so smart.

I'm in the process of paintings all my sheds, fencing and woodwork black.

Looks much nicer than you'd think!

Thanks for all the ideas and the pictures. It was a toss up between Cuprinol Willow and Wild Thyme and we ended up going with the Wild Thyme. Weather was so glorious today didn't want to waste time dithering. As yet undecided on what colour we'll do the fascia boards (still to go on) and whether we'll pick out the windows in a different shade.

This is mine! It's Cuprinol Thyme, I think. My fence and log roll are the same.

Grey.

Originally it was a bright, light blue (the sort that was popular about 12-15 years ago)

Here's my garden:

I use Wilko's 'Willow', which is the same as Cuprinol's 'Willow'.

That black looks really effective

[Cosmicglitterpug]

Thanks! That was last summer...

[DPotter]

Black and white playhouse here, similar to this

Plants and grass really stand out against it.

Lovely garden Cosmic!

We used warm stone from here.

We really liked the product after not liking another brand of stain we used on a chicken coop.

The protek products aren't plasticy at all and can be fairly translucent if you want them to be. We used their wood protector first and then their clear exterior finish. It has lasted really well.

dark brown, obv.

Culprinol seagrass with a forget-me-not trim for the shed. I've a planter in Seagrass too. I think the wilko Willow is similar.

Our shepherds hut is same green as ThisNights

[GingerKitCat]

I'll try and add a picture in a minute

Just noticed Wilko do testers for £1 or £1.50 for Cuprinol if that helps! Their own brand is currently £10 for 2.5L, I feel inspired to paint something!

[GingerKitCat]

I've used Wilko own range in the past with good results.

Mine is currently Asda George River Mist

[shovetheholly]

Purple! I think it's cuprinol lavender, but not sure!

[Bitchfromhell]

The Cuprinol grey colour, it looks a bit like Elephants Breath.
Could have done with something brighter in the winter though.

[ThisNight]

Yes, and the trim is white Daisy.

We have dark blue . Looks lovely against the trees yet doesn't make it stand out too much .
