I’ve gotten lots of inspiration from your design ideas. I have a question for you about my out-of-date 80’s home that I’m hoping you have time to answer. I’d love to update my 80’s oak cabinets and was thinking of painting them white. Same with the fireplace mantel in the adjoining family room. </pre><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6IU0Y7dCTlnx8eV1pu3n97MLerMgBq9YyjgNlPFH0ql5u8tnM3PFXnhZa5IVdlDFt3rcYdTPNmHZb6l9v5p6aX5rYYPm3Mwamc5rhFAA00im9QcF7b254c6Pd7VvZGHgDrxQkTSXUlUw6/s1600/rachel+devine3.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6IU0Y7dCTlnx8eV1pu3n97MLerMgBq9YyjgNlPFH0ql5u8tnM3PFXnhZa5IVdlDFt3rcYdTPNmHZb6l9v5p6aX5rYYPm3Mwamc5rhFAA00im9QcF7b254c6Pd7VvZGHgDrxQkTSXUlUw6/s1600/rachel+devine3.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOeS80ouplwl4f6V0uKKNlVwA0UjRoUKTU__ftVcE7NVJGYPcVuB-XPOg6TmeNZOaRNXe0kiL9IBrHgeBmF6GP5yjLxycmWIEL4DvfdsC2iCEmwzGxKtqxLZYjuE9x5nhqNWePCWPa4BUI/s1600/rachel+devine+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="305" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOeS80ouplwl4f6V0uKKNlVwA0UjRoUKTU__ftVcE7NVJGYPcVuB-XPOg6TmeNZOaRNXe0kiL9IBrHgeBmF6GP5yjLxycmWIEL4DvfdsC2iCEmwzGxKtqxLZYjuE9x5nhqNWePCWPa4BUI/s1600/rachel+devine+1.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKwExh5QaBJeuQoIw7UmtccYLv6LjCv3NdGzClEZXRtWG9cfzm2zT3PqTRqzBo05smuKtj1gb6Woybtux1gTX5H7NQposxHVpVgPWTkOd0aHIUk8Dmx-WaQDvuXl3PIBFxV-RpZZnvNu8-/s1600/rachel+devine2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="302" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKwExh5QaBJeuQoIw7UmtccYLv6LjCv3NdGzClEZXRtWG9cfzm2zT3PqTRqzBo05smuKtj1gb6Woybtux1gTX5H7NQposxHVpVgPWTkOd0aHIUk8Dmx-WaQDvuXl3PIBFxV-RpZZnvNu8-/s1600/rachel+devine2.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br /><pre style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web Regular', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Helvetica Neue', 'BBAlpha Sans', 'S60 Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.3333330154419px; line-height: 21.3000011444092px; white-space: normal;"></pre><br /><pre style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web Regular', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Helvetica Neue', 'BBAlpha Sans', 'S60 Sans', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15.3333330154419px; line-height: 21.3000011444092px; white-space: normal;">But I like having stained wood trim in these rooms! I have a window and door very close to the fireplace. In the kitchen there is a large bay window right next to the cabinets and a smaller window between cabinets over the kitchen sink. Would it look ok to have stained trim with white kitchen cabinets / fireplace? Or do I need to find another solution to update my kitchen?<br /><br />Thanks for any advice you have!<br /><br />Rachel Devine</pre><br /><pre style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web Regular', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Helvetica Neue', 'BBAlpha Sans', 'S60 Sans', Arial, sans-serif;
