Ceiling & Crown Moulding
Hello, we recently moved into a new unpainted home where the ENTIRE house was primed in a light cream colour. Feels rough to the touch, scuffs easily and just plain ugly. We painted the walls with "Benjamin Moore Abalone 2108-60" but we left the ceiling and the moulding (and baseboards) unpainted . So my questions are:
If we paint the moulding a semi glossy white, can we leave the ceiling as is? Do we have to paint the ceiling the same shade of white but as a Matte? If so what about the rest of the house? Do all the ceilings in the hallways need to be painted this same white? (for continuity?)
Will the room look awkward with grey walls, white crown moulding and a light cream ceiling?
(ignore the pillows, getting rid of those :P)
Thanks guys!

You could also paint your ceilings white with just a hint of the wall color mixed in.
If you do bright white for trim, keep the ceiling a cool tone white. If you do a creamy white on the trim, opt for a warmer, creamier white on the ceiling.
