Molding and Script Trim

 

In my entry, as you go into the living room, I wrote a scripture that was appropriate for that area.  

It says:

"We will  be blessed in the city and blessed in the country, 

blessed when you come in and blessed when you leave."

Deuteronomy 28: 3,6

 

In my living room, I decided that I wanted to do something a little different.  Molding is fairly inexpensive and can make a major change to a room.

I painted my living room a pretty tan color, Desert Dawn, which is no longer available.  I then put crown molding all around the room that was painted gloss white.  

I measured 18" in on the ceiling and painted that area the same color as the walls.  Due to the light hitting it at different angles, that area looks like a different color, but it's not.  Then, I had a flat backed molding installed at the 18" line and it was painted the same glossy white paint.  The inner, center part of the ceiling was painted two shades darker of the Desert Dawn.

So, you get the effect of three hues of the same color when actually there are only two.

It will give your room a very distinctive look at a fairly low cost.

Enjoy!
