Help on what to do with trim


I have natural fir doors and casings in bedroom and bathroom and hall ways. I have two questions. I don't want to paint out doors and windows but would like to use white base boards. Can I run white base boards up to the natural door trim or can I leave doors and casings natural and trim out doors and base boards white. I guess the third option would be to leave doors natural and paint casing to match trim. Any help greatly appreciated.

Help on what to do with trim


Is there a reason why you don't want fir baseboards to match everything that you already have existing?

Help on what to do with trim


Thanks for the reply, The main reason is that four of thes doors # of which are pocket doors separate bathroom from toilet area, walkin closet, hallway, and master bedroom. I thought on the bathroom side it would be too much wood to look at so was trying to comprimise by trimm ing out doors and casings and baseboards white as I have a lot of color going and also a lot of wood with cabinets and four doors and I would rather have white baseboards and door trim in bath area but can leave the natural wood in the bedroom. I know this is difficult to understand but any advice very much appreciated. Thanks
