To paint or not to paint baseboards, trim, and doors?
Comments (5)I will vote for painting SOME of the trim in white. Look around each of the rooms and spaces -- and see if painting parts (for example - JUST an example!) of the trim -- like the spindles on the staircase or windows MIGHT make the space look less "choppy" to the viewer's eye. BUT -- do investigate Minwax's Polyshades wood stains and other wood treatments first. And of course -- there is the classic Murphy's Oil Soap for wood cleaning. And I have included a link to MY fav product for treating wood -- I use Williamsville Wax (it is NOT waxy at all -- just the name!) on my oak furniture and other wood furniture. Just a thought! Here is a link that might be useful: Williamsville Wax -- the BEST for wood!...See MorePainting Wood Trim and Baseboard Options
Comments (11)You have very nice trim. I sure wouldnt be painting it. If you really have to have white cabinets, then just have white walls, and leave the trim. I dont mind painted trim, but, I really do not like white trim, nor do I like white kitchen cabinets, although, I do like cabinets painted in colors.. Your house looks very warm and inviting the way it is right now....See MorePainting wood baseboard but not trim
Comments (3)White isn’t going to solve the problem. it will just call attention to what you don’t like. I suggest you paint baseboard the same as the wall, in the same finish, it will help them disappear....See MorePainting out baseboards, leaving window and door casings white?
Comments (7)A picture of the whole room is what I would need to see. Are you planning drapes or what kind of window covering? I don’t think it would look right to paint the trim like the walls in fact I think the baseboards and the trim could be wider....See MoreKaren Winnick
