Colorbond 'Bushland'. well... what i think that colour looks like... still a bit unsure hhaha -Sha Re: Back Fence Colour - can't decide 4Jan 09, 2009 9:51 am Light colours tend to make fences stand out, where as if it's painted a darker colour, they tend to fade into the background and make the plants infront become the feature.

Have to agree with you there , cream fence always draws the eye to it ... Re: Back Fence Colour - can't decide 10Jan 09, 2009 11:06 am oh I would definately do the red.. unless you plan on covering the red one with a brush panel or similiar, or some other option.. - but I am pretty big on uniformity..

Re: Back Fence Colour - can't decide 13Jan 09, 2009 5:27 pm I have just painted our fences BLACK....it looks great especially against the gold and green foliage....and the fences receed into the background... and dont become the first thing you notice... Re: Back Fence Colour - can't decide 15Jan 09, 2009 9:48 pm I think the darker one would be nicer as it defines the border. If you where going to do a complete colour change I loved the one bingoshelley did in colourbond Mountain Blue here is the link. Looks great I reckon.

Red will show up the foilage effectively as well. Fi has moved in!! Re: Back Fence Colour - can't decide 18Jan 10, 2009 6:50 am Another vote for the red to match, if not the green.
Stormy, thanks for the tip on light coloured fences; I had never thought of that before! We are getting some side fencing quotes at the moment; I was going to go with Paperbark but now thinking Woodland Grey might be a better option Re: Back Fence Colour - can't decide 20Jan 10, 2009 7:24 am One of my pet hates is to see multi coloured fences in one yard!
