Crown Molding

Hey there. I am about to buy a house that has pretty wood stained trim downstairs. The problem is I don't know how to decorate with darker trim. I have always had painted white trim to work with in the past. I am thinking about painting the walls deep and earthy tones. Does anyone have a website or an idea that they have found to be helpful with this type of probelm? Thanks.

Here in Chicago, we usually have the opposite problem. Beautiful wood trim buried under decades of layers of paint.

Think of the wood trim as a picture frame around your room, and think of the walls as the matting. This will make your decorating decisions much easier.
