Trimming basically refers to an outline – it’s nothing large, and it always runs the periphery of the whole space, but it does have a bold impact. So you can use trimming in your inbuilt furniture, window treatments and door frames to add a nice framing that can drastically enhance the look of your plain interior designs!
2. Furniture on a canvas
