First, don\\u2019t change your house color just because everybody else copied you. We all agree that you can keep it white, because we love the warmth and traditional feel that the white exterior brings. Molly notes that you could consider adding some shutters with darker colors if you want to create layering and set yourself apart.\\nFor the green, a more traditional green is where you want to look. One suggestion that Molly had is one from Farrow & Ball. We can\\u2019t wait to see the finished library too - be sure to send in pics!'
