Outdoor Things Around the House | a spring vlog

[@katrish786]

I love that you bought an old house with character & gorgeous mature trees & plantings rather than a new build, cookie cutter subdivision house. It's so you. And I love that you're not going to rush to do the house but take your time & let the ideas come & work on areas of it as you live there & thoughtfully, intentionally create a home that is a refuge & a retreat for your soul. Also, I can vicariously live in my dream home through you & not have to be the one putting out the bucks to make that happen. 😊

[@lauramitchell6725]

Actually,I was under the impression that it’s not an old home but more like an eighties subdivision? Please confirm or correct.🫤

[@angiehargett4278]

I’m in Texas. My Carolina jasmine is evergreen and when it booms the smell is pure heaven. I can smell it 20 yards away. Confederate jasmine is another great one.

[@valerijohnson2839]

The reason I chose star jasmine for my trellis is that it’s leafy from the ground up instead of leggy. If you’re looking for privacy it works very well.

[@larafernz6790]

Jasmine for sure, they are always full and lush, roses tend to thin out, need pruning and drop lots of leaves and petals

[@kaylamson5161]

I grew up in South Carolina and a very historic black/green color we used was Charleston green. Loved the video! God bless, John 3:16

[@Motherhubbard170]

Maranatha

[@chucksuter6551]

Yeah Charleston green is common on the southeast coast! It was the name given to the darkest paint that could be made without black dyes. It’s common in the south especially cities like Charleston, Atlanta, Baltimore, Richmond etc because it was shipped there during reconstruction to help the cities rebuild. It’s really a fascinating history!

[@sylvain123]

Thankyou for your comment. Charleston Green. I live in Australia and I am wanting to decorate my new home exterior trim in what I describe as biting into Darrell Lea licorice it's green but almost black. Now I have a name for the colour. Much appreciated. Blessings from Australia 🇦🇺🙏

[@jenniferbarkey5712]

My vote for your trellis is the Jasmine. I had Jasmine when I lived in Hawaii and it's scent is wonderful.

[@deirdrecerasa3932]

Glad you found the old can of paint. The round white table is beautiful as is the rectangular table. Love the pots of hydrangeas by the front door. ❤

[@lisatague305]

I adore older homes they have character . Potted hydrangeas always look so pretty in nice vessels . Your out door furniture is beautiful ! If the cost is not prohibited I would powder coat them. Cost saving in the long run. I vote for jasmine . Love the flowers of roses ,but not thorns and leaves .

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thank you so much 😊

[@rebekahschroeder7949]

Green has been my favorite color all my life…well, except in my elementary school days. I love the shade of green on the shutters and I know the front door is going to look amazing green! Especially with a brass door knocker! 😍

Your vibe with the house and lush surroundings is totally on point! Love how you're not rushing things, letting your creativity flow naturally. It's like watching a dream home come alive😍🏡

[@juliapounds1391]

Jasmine would probably work better than roses, but both require full sun (at lease 6 hours) to do well. Your house is looking so pretty, and love both tables!

[@melindaferreira9879]

That is such a beautiful green. I painted my small bedroom a very similar color.. beautiful concept in theory, wrong space .. too small, not enough light. I think on your door it will look wonderful! Jasmine and honeysuckle, orange blossom smell so good...

[@shorelife737]

Pale pink climbing roses! That’s my personal favorite. Your home is coming along nicely. Such a beautiful home and family.

Green is such a beautiful color for a front door! It is going to look absolutely stunning, and I cannot wait to see it!!!❤❤❤

[@queens6583]

It was nice to see you in NYC and even taking the subway with the train breeze blowing your hair. The baby looked so tiny in TJ's arms. I see the sweater was a big hit. The wrought iron tables are beautiful, but hot to sit on in the summer. I'm sure you have cushions in mind and maybe use a Sunbrella fabric so they don't fade. I have no plant tips unfortunately since I am the kiss of death to plants. My mom used to tell me she hoped I was better with patients than plants. I could nurse people but not plants. You've done a beautiful job so far so I have faith in you. I miss Raleigh / Durham. I had family there and was a frequent visitor from the age of 18 till my family passed away over the years. I still have friends in Cary who I keep in touch with. I even thought I would live there one day, but alas I did not. Have a wonderful Easter!

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thank you so much!! Yes, the sweater was a hit for the tiny baby!! 🥰 we will definitely try to add some cushions. Still working out if I want to diy them or not.

[@nellievazquez6013]

Why not plant both together; Jasmine and miniature roses! It will look lovely and you will also enjoy the fragrance!! Planting both together will represent your unique, exquisite taste! Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations. You teach and inspire us all!

[@PrettyinthePines]

Yes!! We love the trees! Even with a smaller lot it feels very private.

[@sherryhudson9075]

I’d go for jasmine. The containers don’t look deep enough for rose roots and the nutrition they need.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Ahh good to know! They are about 18 inches deep

[@PaulinaPaulinaPaulina]

My mom and I loved this video and both agree you should go with roses for the trellis! What fabulous tables you found! Hope you find 2 other chairs to you love, to complete the set. The hydrangeas and pots you chose, look so good on your front porch! Happy Easter & Resurrection Sunday, to you and your family! 💐💗

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thank you so much!

[@sandyschipper5008]

The green front door will add so much charm Shelby! Good choice. I think roses for the end pots , jasmine will attract bees. Roses will give the old world/ romantic vibe that your house has. Which ever you choose will look good, you have such good taste! I love your front porch pots...hydrangeas are one of my favorites.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Ahh thank you!

[@katrish786]

I also love the hydrangeas in the pots, but I'm wondering, can they live in pots long term? I thought they had to be in the ground, but I'd like to have some if they will live in pots.

[@l.e.bingham6643]

Hello it’s good to see that you’re back, I’m so excited about the warm weather and gardening as well. My roses are growing so much and can’t wait to put my Hummingbird feeder out , GOD BLESS 🙏🏾🥰💖💯💫

Jasmine. I’d do both jasmine on the ends and the roses in the center.

[@randiemullins7232]

Beautiful home, so many ideas you have and the way you have implemented them. Could you start trellis by planting in the ground as a stronger base?

[@PrettyinthePines]

That would definitely make it stronger but I want it to be a certain height (all the way to the porch ceiling).

[@lia12345Abc]

It’s a lot of work. We had a small Lot and lots of flowers and a vegetable garden. I was so busy with work, kids, rescue pets and the veggies never thrived. Start small this season and see how it goes

[@PrettyinthePines]

Yes! Charleston Green seems like the consensus on what the shutters are. I will check it out!

[@itscarolinemary]

Your home is a dream ❤ it’s stunning. The porches are sooo nice!

[@AvecPoesie]

This was so relatable. I am actively trying to select exterior paint colors for my Home, my shutters, and my doors. I see we both reside in Colonial style Homes, architecture-wise. I have always adored the look of shutters on windows but now that I have that, the colors are so NOT me. The previous owner of my Home was a lifelong bachelor that rendered everything hyper-masculine. The House is currently a deep, dark, almost Black Charcoal ⚫️ with Jet-black shutters. Far too dark and gloomy for my taste. I cannot wait to change it, but I am super indecisive about such a major decision as exterior Home colors! I too am also in the market for white-painted, vintage, iron outdoor furniture, knowledge on gardening/landscaping, and being very intentional overall as I continue my decor journey. The green dress you wore to the Easter brunch event was very 60s elegant chic! Thank you for another lovely video, Shelby. 🖤

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thank you so much for your comment! Wow, jet black exterior… I’m not sure I could ever do that. Our last home was a beige with black shutters, but I would definitely need to brighten things up.

[@dsims868]

The label on the side of the paint bucket, was that the color recipe? You may have the recipe. Smart thinking to compare colors on the shutter. Love the pots, flowers and table set. We are not going anywhere. Take your time , get a feeling for the home, watch the light change in the rooms throughout the day. The home I grew up in had a soft pink fragrant rose arbor over the garden gate by my bedroom. I loved opening my windows to let the sunlight, air and fragrance in. As an adult I had a jasmine arbor and enjoyed it as well. Both got lots of compliments from neighbors. Make sure you don't have allergies to either. My mom had a tree in our yard cut down because I was allergic to it. Go mom! Enjoy the journey. We will too.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thank you!!! And yes, the color recipe was on the label so we are good! It was very nice reading your comment!

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

We’ve been Planting flowers around our cottage, too.🌱🌷

[@beckykueng3017]

I grew up in Southern Virginia and our white cottage had a beautiful dark green louvered door and we had green shutter to match. Whenever I think of home I see that door and the shutters and it just gives me such a sense of joy! Your home is lovely and the door will certainly be a perfect accent to the warmth and comfort your home has.

[@PrettyinthePines]

I love that so much! Thank you!! Excited to see how it turns out!

[@rneustel388]

This house just seems to be made for you and your family to step in and be its next caretakers for hopefully many years! I hope you plant some gardenias. To me, no Southern home should be without a gardenia plant. Hugs to Pearl! ❤

[@maartje1856]

I love your house! I would choose Jasmin. I have a Tuscany Jasmin and it stays green in wintertime. At least it stays for us in The Netherlands🌿

Have you considered getting an old either dresser or armoire that someone is throwing out? Turn it into a potting station with hooks and storage for gardening things.

[@lisadawes9427]

It's so pretty outside there. I love the big porch. The flowers and pots look great. Love these kind of houses with such character. Enjoy!!

[@debbievontress8472]

I would plant roses for leaf variation from shrub that was to side of porch. Or consider a different climbing plant if not roses. Looks like that area gets lots of shade, so something not requiring lots of sun.

[@PrettyinthePines]

It gets sun for about 4 hours of the day in the morning which is why I was originally thinking jasmine.

[@lindagaydos8618]

As far as attaching something to make a trellis you could do eyelet screws into your post and string galvanized wire from side to side making a diamond pattern. My choice for the flowering vine depends on the amount of sunshine you get. From the porch side you may not get as many blossoms as the side facing the yard because of the sunlight so you may want to choose the one that has the best foliage. I have done this technique on a wall and you will need to draw it out so you get symmetry in your spacing.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Ahh thank you for this!!

[@karenhogan731]

I love the green it will be perfect!💚

[@nicolemangum5023]

Happy Easter, and happy spring to you and your family🐣🐰🌷🥀

[@lia12345Abc]

Just get a flat screwdriver and scrape a little of the shutter paint color so you can take it to match. That’s what we did at our Hawaii home

[@aprilsmith6587]

Hydrangea's are my favorite flower.

[@pamcornelius9122]

We previously had a house with dark green (almost black) shutters and front door. The paint color was Earthbound Green by Duron.

My mom has the same outdoor set u just got. She's had our circular black one and chairs since the 80s.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Wooow!

[@Melanie-xx1fc]

@PrettyinthePines yep! It's held up really well. Especially with rain and outdoor environment before she moved it under the awning they built. Only the paint has chipped. It was once white just like yours.

[@doowopshopgal]

I think David Austin would be so beautiful on your porch. Gertrude Jekyll is a beautiful pink trailing rose and don’t forget when it’s winter you cut them back you trim the canes out and it doesn’t go crazy like the confederate Jasmine would. You need at least four hours of sun for your roses and then dappled sun.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Ahh thank you for the tip!

[@AnnetteMitton]

You are so amazing! I love how real you are. Great ideas. Happy you found the old green paint color on your shutters. Good thing maybe not going with that old paint...it might very well have lead in it.❤😊

Just an FYI….”Charleston Green” by Sherwin Williams was for many years and still is the most popular… almost black green … paint many homeowners and designers use in the South. I have been told it got started in Charleston’s Historic District.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Ahh yes, I think that is most likely what we have! We’ll see!

[@user-he3ek3cs4z]

Jasmine will take off! I vote roses! And for flowers get a large pack of burpee wildflowers at home depot , learn varieties and go from there. ?

[@ritaevans7125]

Check out forbes home article How Long Does Paint Last. You will likely either have latex or acrylic oil. Both can last a significant time. The article talks about how it was stored and signs to check. A big one for latex would be if it has frozen multiple times. There will be no question it is bad and you will see that. Test the paint after mixing on a stir stick. Let it dry. The paint store, which is Sherwin Williams for Duration will mix for you if top is secure. Lowes does also carry Sherwin Williams paint and can mix paint even with the dripped paper on the outside of the can through color matching or scrape a quarter size of paint from the shutters. Colors from other lines are available on the color matching machine, even some of Farrow and Ball. Color names change often, so the same paint could have a new name, but the formula should be the same if you have that on the can. Lowes did sell Valspar, but Sherwin Williams bought Valspar, so you have a combination of both paints offered now under the Sherwin Williams name.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Ahh so good to know!! Thank you so much!

[@Giulia-kb7oq]

Your house is wonderful! I love gardening and what I can suggest you is: Roses are beautiful but you have to consider how much light your plants are going to get in this spot. Roses require lot of sun in other to bloom and Jasmin too but I think it will be better for what you have in mind. Greetings from Italy 🤗

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thank you for the tips!

[@Giulia-kb7oq]

A pleasure 😊

[@Msdeb52]

Carolina jasmine! I love mine. The smell is intoxicating. Easy to grow also.

[@cathywhite169]

Jasmine! Love the paint color for door! We call it Charleston green in the south!

[@meaelmtoft-riedel5481]

I definitely vote roses. Love jasmin, but think you could get much longer bloom if you pick the right roses.

[@jennifer-threedogsinagarde8265]

I would say that the horizontal planters are too small (not deep enough) to accommodate roses. Not sure about the size requirements for jasmine. Alternatively an annual vine might give you nice color. The hydrangeas are lovely but you may find their water requirements make it a challenge to keep them happy.

[@PrettyinthePines]

Thanks for the tips!!

[@juliatoro109]

I think Jasmine or Clematis armandii would do well in that spot. Japanese beetles make it tough to grow roses in the south without pesticides.
