Trim Paint

This before and after featured in Coastal Living was actually focusing on the deck/patio.

But, I couldn't help but notice what a difference trim paint can make! 

Here are some more exterior photos where trim paint really makes the house look great...

Traditional Home

Then I opened my latest Southern Living and found this Senoia, Georgia showhome.....

 

Most of the trim in the home was painted to match the wall color.  Apparently (per the magazine article) - the room looks larger when there is no contrast between the trim and the walls.

But just look at the contrast with the ceiling....

I need to paint my ceilings blue - those are gorgeous.
