In fact, sometimes you can make your exterior paint job last a few years longer by updating the painting on your trim.

Both options are good choices and depend on your style preferences. To blend the colors together, you\u2019ll want to pick similar shades to each other. While you won\u2019t want the same color, it needs to be several shades deeper or lighter to read as different, not a mistake. This means it will look like a finished, thought out look.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neutrals<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neutrals are popular for homes because they work well without jarring the eyes. Choose a primary color in a bright tone then use a greige color as the trim. The neutral trim will tone down the brighter color.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t Forget You<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re keeping your house or preparing for a sale, remember the house is still yours. Choose colors that appeal to your taste. You should feel happy coming home to it, no matter what the color specialists say.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our Trim Painting Tips\u00a0<\/span><\/h1>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Painting Efficiently:\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Begin with the top corner of the door trim. Paint along the side edge where the trim meets the wall. Do all of the outsides of the trim before moving on. Once the outside is done, go back to the top corner and paint the face. Continue until the door frame is complete.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work with the Professional Painters:\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CertaPro Painters\u00ae of Westminster, CO are local painters in the Denver area.
