Prior to adding any trims to the door, use a small piece of trim, attach it to the door with double stick tape on the hinge side and check to see that the door opens. It might not! Attaching trim to the door is more than just cutting the trim, no? I can give you a more detailed set of instructions if you decide to go that route...but I'm for painting the wardrobe (and all the woodwork in the room) white.

Moving in soon and want to revamp this north facing bedroom (see photo below) which has super high ceilings and a fussy built in wardrobe with too much detailing. Was thinking to paint the ceiling darker perhaps to the top of wardrobe right around the room and change knobs/paint wardrobe same as walls (something warm but neutral). Will ditch the curtains too! Thoughts or other ideas?!

Old style built in wardrobe looking for idea to paint

Anyone have any idea how I could repaint this without it chipping?
