We took the weekend off from painting to go to a wedding out of town. We'll have to get back to work next weekend though! I can't wait to see how your bungalow paint job turns out. Your house is looking so great already - the new windowbox is fabulous!!! :) Thank you Bungalowbliss! We took the weekend off from painting to go to a wedding out of town.

I'll have to post another photo later today - it's sooooo pretty in the sunlight. And our neighbors love it(which is great - much better than being "those stupid people who painted their house purple!) Thanks everyone!

They really pop as they are... I'm a firm believer in doing what will make you happy in your home and worrying about authenticity after that-- granted, I wouldn't be okay with painting the house neon green, but then again I'm not sure I'd be a Craftsman lover if I were the kind of person who wanted a neon house, ya know? Anyway, it looks great and is keeping with the spirit of authenticity, if not the exact letter of it! I think it looks fabulous– will you be painting the window and door trim another color?

I'll also say this....I'm a purist, but I think what people call "authentic bungalow colors" today are not all that accurate. The colors deemed "authentic" are never seen on vintage bungalows in my city (except by those that have just painted). So, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Go with what looks good.
