Help with painting crown moulding

Posted by lady_alicia (afinalword@aol.com) on

We're remodeling our game room and I painted two different colors on the walls opposing each other basically. So I have two walls that are a brownish-orangish (almost like terra cotta) and then a moss greenish color on one opposing wall. Now, the fourth side has no wall, it's open, but it has a false bulkhead that was built, and it's also painted the terra cotta color. The reason for the false bulkhead is to have indirect lighting around the whole room. We're putting up crown moulding set down several inches from the ceiling to allow this indirect lighting to lay.

My question is, what color do I paint the crown moulding on the one green wall? The other two walls and false bulkhead are terra cotta and one green wall. So do I paint it ALL the terra cotta color, or do I try to coordinate with the color of the walls; three terra cotta and one moss green to match the wall it's on?

I can take pictures if that would help anyone. :) I've painted most of it so far and I'm stumped now on what to do. All of my trim is a beige color, but that won't look right to paint it that.

Thanks!
Alicia
