Mallory’s Classic Colonial: Exterior Brick Reveal
This post is sponsored by Behr Paint Company. All ideas and opinions are my own, as always.
This exterior painted brick project was been one of the most rewarding DIY projects I’ve taken on. This is my third time painting the exterior of a house myself so I’ve nailed down the process and I can’t wait to share all my tips and tricks for painting the exterior of a home.
Exterior Brick Paint
We used two coats of BEHR® Masonry, Stucco & Brick Paint – White in a Flat sheen for the brick. We used a large airless paint sprayer to get the job done and we were able to complete the entire front of the house in just one day.
Red Front Door
For the front door, we used a angled paint brush and BEHR ULTRA™ Exterior Paint. The color is “Red my Mind” in Semi Gloss.
DIY Black Painted Shutters
We hand painted our shutters with BEHR ULTRA – Exterior, Color: Carbon in Satin. You can read my tips for painting doors and shutters here.
I can’t wait to complete the full tutorial and FAQ for painting exteriors. If you have any questions you want answered, please leave them in the comments section.

Looks Great, did you have to use a primer on the brick?
