Once you've found the perfect wall color, you'll want to paint your trims and baseboards to complement your home decor. While white or gray are traditional baseboard colors, why not branch out with bold colors for a modern twist on interior colors? Use this handy guide to help you choose the best colors for your trim and baseboards.

Paint with off-white trim. If you have dark-colored walls, use a light, warm color, like off-white, ivory, or cream for your trim or baseboards. Off-whites can have blue or sometimes pink undertones, which can be tricky to pair with your wall color. When choosing off-white for your trim or baseboards, consider consulting with a painting professional.

Stain the wood trim and baseboards. Staining the wood trim helps create a warm, rich, and historic feel to your home. If you have light-colored walls, choose a lighter stain, and if you have dark-colored walls, consider using a dark stain to complement the decor.

Use dark trim. People use dark trim to create a contemporary look in their homes. Dark trim is ideal for smaller spaces as the dark colors give the room depth. You can go dark like black or brown, or consider dark green, vibrant purple, or deep red to contrast with softer wall colors.

Choose semigloss paint. Semigloss paint reflects light in the room and adds a pleasant contrast to the wall colors. In addition, semigloss paints are easier to clean than matte paint.

Keep the color consistent throughout each room. While you don't have to have the same trim colors throughout the entire house, you want to keep the trim and baseboard colors the same in each room for a seamless and consistent appearance.

Have fun picking out colors or stains for your trims and baseboards. You can use your creativity or consult with an interior designer who can help you achieve the look you want for your home.
