Paint and stain colors

4 years ago

Hello -
I am obsessed with this house!
Do you recall the paint color AND do you know the wood species and stain color of both the timbers and the T & G?

Obsession- I believe the paint is SW amazing grey. Timbers are certainly doug fir. TG =VG Hemlock plus a clear oil. semi transparent stain on the timber is some flavor of walnut brown. hope that helps.

Hi both - so sorry but this is a really old post (at least a year ago now! Lol) so we have already finished all the flooring. We ended up wimping out after sanding the kitchen and dining room and ended up putting wood flooring down. The wood was just too soft and we would have needed to fill in all the gaps as there was a draft through to the ground. However we did paint the main bedroom floor in white which I LOVE. Except .. on all the instructions I read online, no one mentioned priming with a knot blocker so I have to go over it all again as they are showing through and it looks grubby

Hello Tom, It's a good one and means I can't vote as I have a Jackboot in both camps! (which you haven't allowed for) Paint is soo fantastic and I tend to think colour rather than white..but... that's only because I have had white floors for 10 years.. so need a change... Stain is gr8 if you want to go dark and have a grainy feel... Dark wood paint too is fantastic.. especially electric blue and other wonderments... So it really does depend on the aesthetic preference and what else is happening in the room... : ))

The skirting boards, doors and door frames in our 1930's house are all stained a dark walnut. I want to paint them white. Was is the correct way, and easiest, to prepare all the woodwork for painting?

Crown moulding and stained baseboard

I really like your blue grey walls. The colour looks great with the dark baseboard and your new flooring. I think the white moulding flows seamlessly into the white ceiling and the dark baseboard into the dark flooring. My (UK) vote is for keeping it as it is.
