Ceiling, trim and cabinet Color to pair with BM Chantilly lace
Comments (1)I suggest removing white dove from the scheme. In a poorly light or Northern exposure room, White Dove can look grimy. Do instead Chantilly Lace for trim/cabinets in a semi-gloss and Chantilly Lace for the walls and ceiling in a matte finish. The different finishes will make the one color look differently. If the above one color/different finishes isn’t enough of a contrast, do the Chantilly Lace on trim, cabinets and ceiling and try b.M. Wedding Veil on the walls in matte finish....See MoreSnowbound walls with chantilly lace trim
Comments (1)The bottom line with paint is that if it looks good to you it is OK. Paint colors look different in different types of light. So if you have painted one room with Snowbound walls and Chantilly Lace trim and you like it you can proceed, knowing that it might not look exactly the same in another room simply because one room faces north and the other faces south. There is no rule that says the trim has to be the same as the walls. They just need to be complementary....See MoreHelp! think I made a mistake with Ceiling Color & Chantilly Lace Walls
Comments (12)Don't use white dove. I painted my walls with it and it was hella-dingy! repainted w/Simply White. so much better. (I also did my trim w/it) you will see a natural difference between the eggshell and the semi gloss finish. both of these are Simply White, but the trim looks brighter. it's just because of the reflective quality in the finish. You could try White Heron. Cheating Heart is another great color if you want some real contrast https://www.drivenbydecor.com/benjamin-moore-chantilly-lace/ U mentioned Crushed Ice. I have the walls in the kitchen painted Light Pewter. it's the same ballpark as crushed ice. you can see it here on these two walls. Again, Simply White on all of that trim. (cabinets were supposed to be that shade but they did a lacquer conversion and went one shade whiter, I think) IRL they look identical. night...See MoreWall and ceiling colors to go with Chantilly Lace trim
Comments (4)You can use Chantilly Lace on the ceiling, or what they call ceiling white. Ceilings tend to pick up some tint from the walls due to reflections and the ceiling is not going to be next to the trim so you don't have to be as picky. If the combination doesn't work in the basement I don't think there's anything wrong with using something different there. Try Classic Gray in that instance. It isn't very gray or dark, but the gray in it works well in a southern exposure. It looks good with Chantilly Lace also....See MoreBeverlyFLADeziner
