[quote=Anonymous]I'd say that if you're both of the same opinion to paint it, then go for it. My sister and her fiancee recently bought a gorgeous arts and crafts bungalow full of wonderful, extremely dark woodwork. They both loved the historic charm and detail of the house but had vastly different ideas of what that meant, along with the phrase "we'll need to give everything a fresh coat of paint". My sister is firmly in the camp of paint all of the woodwork a crisp white, he is firmly in the camp of re-varnish the existing dark woodwork. So if you and your SO are of like mind to paint, just do it! It's your home and you should customize it to be what you want to see every day! Plus, in a 110 year old home, it helps to love the way your house looks so when the roof leaks or your furnace craps out in the middle of winter it softens the blow a bit, BTDT :) [/quote]
