Crown Molding is Easy....NOT

We've been trying to add crown molding to two rooms recently...the new office and the new nursery. Now you can find plenty of tips on crown molding littered throughout the internet. Read them but know the value will be limited - they do temporarily boost your confidence. Now, for a real confidence builder go to YouTube and watch a few videos on how to do crown molding...you'll come away feeling it is easier than sitting down for a bowl of ice cream.

Unfortunately, it isn't.

But with patience, some extra wood and a friend it is possible. Oh yea, and caulking, joint compound and sand paper.

Here's a piece of molding in up in the nursery - finishing work is underway.
