Red Painted Walls/ White Baseboards?

We want to paint a wall in our living room dark red. All of the heating baseboards in our home are white.

Would a red wall look ok with white baseboards?

Does anyone have this combination? Can you post pics?

Thanks

We have white baseboards with a red painted wall in our dining room. We also have a white ceiling. I will see if I have a picture.

ETS: Found a picture. Sorry it's not of the whole room, because you can't see the baseboards. So I posted one of the baseboard and one of the room:

OMG Girls, all of you have such BEAUTIFUL HOMES!!! Can you come and decorate mine??? Chat Icon

Oh and to answer your question, I think you could go with white baseboards. Otherwise you could venture into painting them. They do come off the wall so you could do it so they blend right into the wall.

Red is an anger color. I was born in the late '70's so I know all about hippy color stuff.

Yellow is a happy color and Red provokes anger.
