Painting Crown Molding Same Color As Walls

It makes room look bigger.

Painting crown molding same color as walls. This appears to make the ceiling rise. Crown molding gives a room a finished touch especially if the molding and walls are not the same color. Just a note i recently painted my lr walls and crown a very similar color bm s bold blue. I thought i had a steady hand but the contrast of blue crown with the light ceiling was harsh.

If you don t like the matchy look consider painting your walls or trim to contrast with each other for a bolder aesthetic statement. If you have ornate trim but would like a more modern clean look in your room painting the walls and trim the same color will help the trim recede. If repainting your room painting around this molding may seem a bit tricky a bad taping. Painting the crown molding will make it stand out and draw your eye upward.

The same advice goes for the trim around your doorways. We highly recommend painting your crown moulding to match your existing trim as closely as possible for a cohesive and finished look. Consequently i ve decide to put crown moulding throughout my house instead of redoing every ceiling joint. What color is your ceiling.

And paint the trim the same color as or a lighter shade than the wall color to make the walls feel like they are receding. It wouldn t look out of place to paint the crown molding in an accent color and leave the baseboards white. For example if your baseboard trim is a light gray color use the same shade for your crown moulding. In my opinion one should paint crown moulding with a darker color than the ceiling to draw the eye upwards.

If my ceiling is only 8 tall to begin with what color should i paint the crown moulding. Most of my walls are revere pewter except for 2 large walls of white shiplap then my ceiling is edgecomb gray. The baseboards will blend in with the white walls and almost disappear. Here s my question though.
