I can see why you are having a hard time deciding! The thing with wood (if they are real wood) once you paint them....that is a pretty permanent thing! It would be a pain to strip the paint off again! <br><br>Good luck....I am anxious to see what you decide!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4094626877865766804.post-32267604012866961732008-04-27T21:10:00.000-06:002008-04-27T21:10:00.000-06:00Lady!!!

The thought of those wood beams calls back very bad memories. PAINT THEM!

If you can't stand the way it looks, paint them to blend in better. I happen to like the wood look online, but things always look different in person.
