should we paint this door black?
Comments (20)This board is great! I've been on the kitchen board for a while now, and this is my first foray over here - thank you all so much for your suggestions! I think I do want to subdue the front door - that was a good way of putting it. And the door with the shiny brass knob is being replaced with a glass paned door with an ORB handle, which the other french doors have (not fully installed in the picture!) The trim will stay white. I like the idea of doing the door a shade or two darker than the wall. LOVE the idea of artwork with black frames, and painting the chest distressed black. Thank you for all of your ideas! I appreciate it....See MoreDo you like black banister, white spindles, black door combo?
Comments (10)A bannister painted a high gloss black enamel (think grand piano!), is stunning and really makes an ordinary bannister (I have one!) look a bit better. My spindles and risers are white - same color as all the trim in the house. The stair treads are the same color stain as all the floors. Dust typically does NOT collect on a bannister as it is "wiped down" multiple times daily when people use it....See MoreWhat color should we paint the garage? Photo attached

Comments (4)I have no recommendation for a black paint, as I don't paint handrails. I just wanted to point out that the picture you've posted above is a dark stained handrail, not a painted black one. Stain above looks like a Jacobean color....See MoreRho Dodendron
