Any suggestions on what color white to paint trim/ doors when using Alabaster?
Linda McDonald says
I like to use the same white as the walls if I am leaning towards white trim.
wilma says
I am painting my ranch home in SW Light French Gray with alabaster trim and thinking of a navy door
Linda McDonald says
That sounds beautiful!!
Patricia Marshall says
Although I have not tried this, I am told that Sherwin Williams is able to tint your trim paint with 1/2 of the tint in regular Alabaster and it looks amazing. Same color, only brighter!
Linda McDonald says
Thanks for the tip! That sounds beautiful!
Kelly Britt says
Hi Linda.
In your opinion, could I use SW alabaster in a kitchen next to SW pure white cabinets and trim? I’m afraid if I do pure white on walls with different sheen that it will look sterile. I’m trying to stay away from Greys. Thanks in advance!
Kelly
Linda McDonald says
Hi Kelly! That is a very good question. If I want white walls and cabinets I go with the same white and the same sheen. What is your cabinet sheen? If it is satin I would do the same color in satin. I hope this helps!
Theresa says
Love this post. What color would you suggest for a trim color and door color (exterior is being is being painted Alabaster) *leaning towards Wythe blue from BM for door, but open for suggestions with turquoise hint
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

Good questions! If I was painting my house Alabaster I would do the trim the same color. For the door, I think Wythe Blue would be beautiful if you go with all white trim. My door is Wythe Blue but I had it mixed at Sherwin Williams. It is a little less bright as it appears in the photos on my blog. Here is a post where you can see a photo of my door on the front porch. https://lifeonsummerhill.com/wheat-wreath-diy/
But black windows look fabulous on an all-white house too. If I was painting my windows black I would consider a soft black like Iron Ore or Peppercorn. If I painted my windows black I would do the door the same color or a lighter tone stain. My friend Jenny on Instagram has a white house with black windows. Here is an example of her house. https://www.instagram.com/p/CAnF6QeH-s7/
I hope this helps! Good luck!
