Door painted on one side and stained on the other

Posted by tamela johnson, on
I want to paint the trim and door in the bathroom white, but I need to leave the other side of the door stained. This door is open most of the time so you will see the stained door and the white trim. Will this look okay?

Hi when you paint a door with two colours or in your case stain and paint You paint the edge of the door that you can see when the door is open with the same colour So if your standing outside the bathroom and the door is open then the edge next to the door frame is the same colour as the front of the door Other edge and back of the door is painted with the other colour
