Hello Christine,
My name is Monika and I live in Port Coquitlam, BC, Canada. A few years ago we bought our house which is Mexican/Spanish looking style. We painted it again two years ago and we are not sure what color of baseboards, mouldings we should paint. Live is as it is now ( creamy color) or I had an idea of painting kind of brownish, rustic look like. Similar to our beam on the ceiling.

What would be your idea, and advice.
Also, we are planning to paint the exterior. Any suggestion for color?
I would go with something along the line of Sherwin Williams #7645 Thunder Gray 
or 6200 Link Gray. 
I like the green undertones- but neutral feel. A darker color like this will balance your red bannister. In most all cases- I like to paint the doors the same color as the baseboards- it's kind of like your purse and shoes. I discussed colored baseboards in this post also.

For your exterior- I think you should go for a drive and find a home that has a paint scheme that you like- and copy it. Never select your colors for your exterior from samples that are measured in inches. I would take a paint deck up to the house- ask the homeowner if you can look at their exterior- try your best to match the colors- and then purchase sample quarts and put them on your own home in good sized sections and see what you think. This is a safe way to go.
Good luck,
Christine

Hi,
I have creamy/khaki base boards, crown moulding and doors. What colors would go good with these to make good accent walls? I painted the bedroom wall behind the bed chocolate brown. I am painting the walls portabello in the entry hall. What do you think of this?
Also, I have American Walnut (dark) cabinets in the kitchen... what color should I use? I also would like a suggestion for the master bath. I have reds, golds, and choc browns in the master and master bath.
In the living, I painted one wall red, red wine.
THANK YOU!
