Interior Painting Ideas for Your Home

The best and most cost-effective way to improve the look of inside of your home is with interior painting. We’re not just talking about painting the walls, though. There are many places that can be painted to give everything a brand new look.

Ideas for Interior Painting in Your Home

You could start by looking around the room you’re in to see what can be painted. Of course, the walls, ceiling and trim can be painted. The not-so-obvious places that can be painted are identified below.

Crown Molding

Crown molding turns up the sophistication of a room, but as it becomes older and yellow, it simply doesn’t give off the same look and feel. This is why it’s important to have your crown molding painted whenever you have the walls painted. If it’s been five years since your last re-paint, it’s about time for it.

Wainscoting

The same goes for wainscoting. It can turn yellow over time, get nicked, scratched, or otherwise blemished. Painting over the wainscoting can help you keep it looking new.

Now, consider this: some people have started painting wainscoting a different color. For instance, instead of the traditional white, they are painting it grey, yellow, or another coordinating color that looks good with the walls.

Fireplace Border and Mantel

If you have a gas fireplace that comes with a border and mantel, that can be painted. Over time, it may have become dark from the fireplace, or it may also have yellowed if it’s white. You have of course have it re-painted white or a different color, which some people have decided to do.

Remember, fireplaces are usually a vocal point for a room, so make it pop as it should.

Wood Furniture

If you have an entertainment center or just a side table, it may be able to be painted a color from the theme of your home. For instance, if you have a beach theme, you can paint it a turquoise or white. Anything that will take paint can be painted, so consider the furniture you currently have and see what you may wan to have painted.

Kitchen Cabinets

Interior painting includes painting kitchen cabinets. This can completely transform the look of your kitchen. Many people will change the color of their cabinets and then have their walls painted a coordinating color.

If your kitchen cabinets are stained, you can have them re-stained to make them look brand new again. And yes, we do offer this service.

Bathroom Cabinets

Just like kitchen cabinets, bathroom ones can be painted as well. You can make your bathroom look completely different by painting the walls and then the cabinets. It’s truly amazing how different a bathroom can look after having the cabinets and walls painted a different color.

Doors

Oh yes, the doors can be painted with interior painting. Some people like have the insider of the front door painted to match the interior theme, but you can have any door painted. You can have it painted any color you wish, so don’t be afraid to get creative.

Stairway Banisters and Rails

If you have a wooden staircase and rails, they can be painted. You can have them painted any color or if they are stained, you can have them stained again. This can make them look brand new again, instead of having all of the dings and scratches in it.
