Yeah, painting the old wood and painting the brick is just too much. My home is pushing 100 and I have big old molding everywhere, but I’ve seen other houses in my neighborhood where folks have painted the big old molding - white obviously, because that’s apparently the only “color” - and to me it just begs to be burnt to the ground.
Natural materials people! And then leave them to age naturally and gracefully!
Everyone bitches about how fake everything has become. And then they go and do things like the right hand picture. Idiots. Idiots, the lot of them.

An old house deserves to live as it is. I hope you get to grow older alongside your home!
