    I would def like to hear more on dark trim. I have lots of thin oak trim in an open concept and standard bright white trim in the two bedrooms and white doors in hallway. Since I got the black dog, I’ve been thinking of darkening EVERYTHING. Just not confident about that decision yet…

    I'm thinking of darker trim color now that I'm living more rustic - dry mountains, dog/cat/horse, hubby in construction, so white is simply impractical. I just saw sparrow in the pashmina vid.

    I think always using white on windows and floor skirting boards looks a bit dull and basic. I discovered if I use the same colour as the wall then it looks much more modern and stylish plus the ceilings look higher too.

    I have old house (1964) with highly textured ceiling. Possibly shotgun plaster. This ceiling is surrounded by large curved moldings throughout the house. The curved moldings are possibly 14 inches. They too are textured. Mainly sand rough and uniform. Currently are painted white on both ceiling and large moldings. Should I paint the molding different color but similar to white ceiling when I repaint. The current white paint on both does a great job in unifying ceiling and molding which does emphasizes the architectural feature.

    What are your thoughts about having light almond, vinyl windows? I always see white vinyl with white base/trim/doors.
    I was considering a light almond or towards antique white for the trim and doors. Wall colors are dark: Northern light Blue, tan and sea salt blue (very very light) on walls. My thought again using a very off white or light tan trim would be complimentary. Great video here btw. Thank you.

    • @thepaintpeople
      @thepaintpeople  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Brian, my thoughts are the light almond will likely contrast with the blues in your palettes, so it'll make the almond look more beige. If you use warm off whites, they will lean into their undertones more next to the blue, looking less white. If you want that crisp contrast, then go with a cooler white. All depends on the look you prefer.

    If I paint baseboards to match walls, do I use the same sheen? Can I do this only in living area? Kitchen, dining and family room pretty open less arch between family and dining. Dining and kitchen are like one. Kitchen changing color from med olive to a med blue. Family room is beige.

    What color would you paint the trim and crown molding if the walls were painted with Benjamin Moore Simply white?

    • @ItsMe-vd4qi
      @ItsMe-vd4qi ปีที่แล้ว

      Rachel, most designers would suggest sticking with Benjamin Moore simply white but doing the trim in a different sheen. So in other words, if you used that color in flat on your walls, you’d want to do that same color in a semi or satin finish for your trim. That way, you get dimension and the whites don’t clash or look dirty since they have the same undertone. Hope that helps

    My painter is suggesting BM "White" for ceiling, baseboards, doors, & trim as it will need fewer coats than Chantilly Lace. My 1st floor walls will be BM White Heron / Oxford White & I have White / Light Oak Floors. Upstairs colors are After the Rain, First Light, November Skies, Quiet Moments, Crystalline, & SW Sea Salt. I watched your video where you said you wouldn't recommend BM "White" for trim. Would you still say no to BM White for trim? I've asked my painter to sample it for me. THANK YOU!
