What a Difference...

A few feet of Crown Molding can make! Our main floor bath is tiny (circa 1954) and I'm always looking for ways to make it seem more like the luxury baths that are so popular these days. Last year we had replacement windows put in and we removed the old window with panes and replaced with the glass block window (love it!)...we have plaster walls and the previous owner had wallpapered without a backer and when I went to remove the paper the plaster walls were coming with it! I found the paper with a linen texture and we put that up a few months back but i wanted crown molding to really finish it off...we bought the molding several weeks back but jim was putting it off and then today i came home to find he had started it...here's a before without and one section with it! Amazing what a difference it makes to add the crown molding doesn't it?

  1. I sooo agree with you Gayle! I love crown molding! When we renovated our 1970's home, it was one of the things on my wish list. It transforms a room from ho-hum to wow!

  5. The molding looks great! I would love to do that in a couple of rooms upstairs. Can't wait to see the complete pic. I like the wall color also.
