Painting crown molding black?

Question

HELP! Need some ideas! I was in a cafe not long ago that had taupe walls and black crown molding! I have chair molding and crown molding throughout my house. I would like to paint it black...BUT do I have to paint ALL of it black, in every room and hallway, or can some be black?! HELP!!!

Answer 1

It's your house. It can be whatever you want. You don't even have to paint a whole molding black. It's yours! Have fun with it!

Answer 2

What color are your walls? You could paint one of the moldings black and the other a darker shade of brown. I have seen a house that was a dark honey color wall with black molding that was just beautiful. I love different stuff. Don't be scared to try something new you just might love it! I think it is a great idea and no I don't think it all has to be black especially if you have black accents throughout the house.
