Room refresh: painting interior doors and trim

If you’re thinking of adding some new accents to refresh a particular room in your home, this BrightNest article from Kara Bennett highlights two simple and inexpensive ways to make it happen.

There are two big accents in your home that you may be ignoring. When’s the last time you took a look at your interior doors and trim?
