I choose satin finish, using an extender, with a brush. It's so pretty I sit and stare at it! So I know what you mean by loving contrast!<br />Thanks for sharing.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07807449356256611546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880034708850704040.post-87635028927211409232017-08-03T19:10:02.890-04:002017-08-03T19:10:02.890-04:00What color is your window trim painted?

Brush, roller, both?? I have been told that paint strokes and roller marks are really noticeable if you don't remove the doors and spray them instead. Curious as to your thoughts. Also, what sheen did you choose, eggshell, semigloss?? Thanks! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880034708850704040.post-79281901170256452022017-06-13T13:15:35.903-04:002017-06-13T13:15:35.903-04:00What finish is the paint?What finish is the paint?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880034708850704040.post-6621685769778893152017-06-07T10:03:37.600-04:002017-06-07T10:03:37.600-04:00No, I did not uninstall the doors before painting....No, I did not uninstall the doors before painting. I painted the sides, but just went around the hinges. If you are not comfortable painting this way you could always use Frog tape to cover the hinges or remove the door altogether.Katie @ Little House of Fourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11186862834959203644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880034708850704040.post-78553335668636156502017-06-07T07:23:59.919-04:002017-06-07T07:23:59.919-04:00May I know if you uninstalled the doors from the f...May I know if you uninstalled the doors from the frames before painting it or..?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4880034708850704040.post-21459787260044452062017-06-05T16:35:13.774-04:002017-06-05T16:35:13.774-04:00Hi Emily!
