Crown
molding adds a classy touch...Cheap!
Crown
molding is the easiest way to add dimension and class to a room.
I had a room in our living space that needed something that I
just could not put my finger on it. I was walking around the local
home improvements store and it hit me...Crown Molding. It was
very cheap, and took minimal skills to install. All you need is
a miter saw, measuring tape, and some fastening devise.
I was in a friends newly built home (very expensive, mind you)
after that and noticed that most of the room in the main living
area had some sort of crown molding. That was set in my mind as
to what I needed to do.
There is many different types. You can even put some of the pieces
together to make your own concoction (er. masterpiece). The possibilities
are limitless. But, don't go over board. You are trying to add
an element not recovering the entire wall.
It is pretty simple. Just measure the length of the wall and cut
on the angle the corresponds with the perpendicular wall that
you are intersecting. Usually it is a 45 degree angle. You need
to be pretty precise, but not perfect. You can fill the small
cracks with calking.
The difference was incredible. It added the desired class and
look. It really makes a nice transition from the wall to the ceiling.
Just get you a small piece and try it. Then make your decision.
