Exterior Paint

We've had a hard time trying to figure out exterior paint (interior too, but that's content for a later time).  It's such a commitment!  Our original thoughts were a true gray scheme like our inspiration house. But we're using a fair amount of grays inside the house and didn't want to be too monochromatic. We came across another combo thanks to some internet searching but wanted to see each combo in person, side by side, in different lighting.  So we bought some paintable birdhouses and samples of the colors and tried them all out.

Which option do you prefer??

Option 1 - Sherwin Williams March Wind (SW7668) below,
Pewter Cast (SW7673) above, and Nacre (SW6154) trim.

Option 2 - Sherwin Williams Chatroom (SW6171) below,
Hardware (SW6172) above, and Muslin (SW6133) trim.


Side by side...Sun was bright so they look similar.
