*Menards shopping list: trim for gaps between vanities and walls, trim for gaps between kitchen cabinets and walls, trim for kitchen sink surround, baseboard shoe for kitchen toekick, materials for kitchen table, fridge, paint brushes and rollers for floor varnish.


Menards doesn't have any bright greens (only boring ones), but Home Depot does have one that looks pretty nice (bamboo leaf). So here's the palette I suggest:
ADDITIONAL TRIM for Maysville House:

For the MH I think we should go with white for the walls as that will make the space appear bigger.
