Painting living room wood trims

12 years ago

I wanted to know if I should paint my mouldings and chair rail in my living room and dinning room. The walls are farrow and ball white tie. It is an old house circa 1894, and the decor is modern rustic.

Thank you for your ideas.

Cheers

Anna Gastaldi
