I am a newbie needing advice on stain trim & door color....
Comments (2)If you like the look of the natural wood, go for it. I don't think it will look silly with the medium brown maple cabinets, the differences in stain/no stain will look great together....See MoreInterior Doors and Trim Style Advice
Comments (2)I am in the same boat. I want contemporary and he keeps going back to shaker or 6 panel. We actually have slab on the main floor (these are for the basement). I saw a Jeldwen molded 5 panel door that I thought was interesting. Does this read contemporary to you? Ack! I can't find a direct link. The door I liked is in the Door Style section. Under Passage doors - Rockport 5 panel door. I do need some bi-fold doors for the office. Do those also have to match? Here is a link that might be useful: Jeldwen Interior - Rockport...See MoreAdvice needed, please! Kitchen cabinet interior stain?
Comments (7)I also vote clear coat. Our kitchen cabs are dark outside and clear coated maple on the inside. Our dining room cabs (10 ft from the kitchen ones, essentially same room)have glass doors and are finished with the dark stain inside as well. This is great for cabs being used as china cabinets, but not what I'd want for the place I keep the olive oil and the cake pans....See MoreAdvice on staining windows dark and adding white trim in a 1989 ranch
Comments (3)You're on the right track! While it is tough to determine without photos, a high-contrast palette is typically an effective design approach. Best of luck with your project!...See Moremillworkman
