What color do you paint the base board and the board that runs along the edge of the ceiling?


I’m painting the ceiling pure white and the walls a light green, blue. Do you paint the board along the ceiling off white or what?

    Everybody’s taste is differn’t but white would probably be your best bet. You dont want to many differn’t colors going on. Good luck

    Crown moldings and baseboards should be white.

    I don’t think it is called baseboard, maybe frieze.
    Paint it the same color as the ceiling, preferably matt or semi-matt,always looks better as there are no reflections.

    I would go with white, but in a satin or semi-gloss finish. You want them to stand out a little, but not draw attention to themselves. Hope this helps.

    Paint it the same white that you painted the ceiling, black or brown. It all depends on what colors you will compliment the room with. If you have brown furniture, paint it brown. If you have white, paint it white.
