Interior door trims and window trims match?

10 years ago

I've decided to stain all of my window trims to match the faux wooden beam and floating wooden staircase. Is it ok if all the doors inside the house have white trimming and white doors or do I need to match the door trimming and doors to the stained wood window trimming color? Need help.

It would be best to have the doors and trim left white. Everything trimmed in wood stain will look like an outlined coloring book. I'd even reconsidering staining the window trim but it depends on the size and style of your home. Bottom line, yes, it's okay to leave the baseboards, doors, and door trim the white.
