So, if you’re looking to branch out from the usual white trim paint and want to paint your trim and crown molding a colorful accent color, read on to find out why this popular trend might be a great choice for your own home.
Today we’ll explore some gorgeous interior trim paint colors in different shades which will hopefully inspire you to give it a try.
Colorful Trim Paint Ideas
If you’re looking for the best trim color for your living room or dining room, and you want something with more of a pop than the usual white trim colors, today’s post if for you!
Soft Neutrals
Soft neutral tones like light gray, beige, or taupe are popular choices for trim paint colors – and for good reason.
Not only do these shades make a room feel cohesive and stylish, but these hues can create a beautiful subtle contrast with your wall color.
Thereby adding depth and sophistication to your interiors.
They also work well with a wide range of decorating styles, making them a versatile option for any room.
Consider an off-white trim color for a modern look with a warm white color palette.
This color scheme can work particularly well in an open floor plan.
Bold and Coordinating
A great way to achieve a bit more drama and personality in your interior design is by choosing a darker color.
Consider using a bright, color coordinated color.
A dark color like navy blue or a deep green will create a striking visual impact – especially when paired with a bold and colorful wallpaper pattern.
As a general rule, you’ll want to color match an existing color within your wallpaper.
This approach will look fabulous in your space – especially if you want to draw attention to architectural details like moldings, door frames and window trim.
Constrasting Color
Choose a slightly lighter or darker shade for your trim to create subtle contrast without overwhelming the space.
This technique works particularly where a serene atmosphere is desired – like bedrooms and bathrooms.
Pastel Perfection
If you prefer a softer and more romantic ambiance, pastel trim colors can work wonders.
Soft pinks, pale blues, mint greens, and lavender tones can add a touch of whimsy and charm to your interior.
Pastel trim pairs beautifully with neutral wall colors, creating a delicate and inviting aesthetic that’s perfect for bedrooms, nurseries, or even a cozy reading nook.
