The chair rail took one coat of primer and three coats of paint. That's a lot of painting!Jaysahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03277072082082107928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1839118039736620625.post-52909512885787157872014-10-29T19:31:01.165-07:002014-10-29T19:31:01.165-07:00I completely agree.

I have seen many houses where some rooms are wood and some are white, and it's a slow process to do it all but it isn't that noticeable from room to room that it's different. Have you ever thought of doing a faux board and batten on the lower half? You just nail in thin strips of boards every so often and then paint it all white. I think right now it's just looking a little top heavy with all the photos, and a nice white board and batten would look awesome and balance out the weight, and brighten it up. lesli gresholdthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03515246723905567117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1839118039736620625.post-2844088112482507592014-10-28T04:55:39.661-07:002014-10-28T04:55:39.661-07:00I looked at it again, and think the problem is the...I looked at it again, and think the problem is the thin floor trim. Have you seen House of Smith's tutorial on beefing up floor trim? She added a trim above her original stuff by using a piece of board as a guide and then painted between the top and bottom trim so it looks like one big piece. I really think your problem is the skinny trim.At Rivercrest Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12068816102263605128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1839118039736620625.post-23943208663325032642014-10-28T04:51:08.236-07:002014-10-28T04:51:08.236-07:00The white looks so good.

The last thing I would tackle in that room is the wood trim at the top of the wall.At Rivercrest Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12068816102263605128noreply@blogger.com
