Many homeowners use plain white as trim. The choice brings out a very lovely home. However, this is not the only option to use.
The choices you have
For instance, it is you decide to paint your home light blue, a darker shed of blue will be good for the trim. If you do not use white as the trim, it is advisable to go with a darker shade of the color you have used to paint the house.
Neighborhood
Yes it is your home and you supposed to paint whatever color you want, but it is good to consider your neighbors. They will not be pleased if you choose a color that makes the whole area look bad. Get a color you like but again let it blend with what the neighbors have. Make others as happy as you are with the color of your paint.
Resell value
You should select a color putting in mind the future of that house. If you decide to sell it after five years, will the paint be accepted by the buyers? For a house to sell, it must be appealing to the buyers. A nice color is a point of attraction.
