beautiful and chic crown molding ideas cover

Crown molding is a lovely accent that gives a more refined and elegant feel to any home without too much money or effort. Such molding is easy to install yourself and it can easily add a chic and timeless feel to any home, though it’s mostly for more classic interiors than modern ones. Though, if you rock stained molding, it will look nice in farmhouse and rustic spaces, too. Let me share some of the best ideas to use it in your home.

A classic idea for installing crown molding is using it between the wall and ceiling, it’s mounted at a 45-degree angle at the point where the ceiling and walls meet. At the corners where the walls meet, the moldings can be joined with mitered joints or with coped joints. Such molding gives a refined feel to the space highlighting the ceiling a lot, and if molding features a pattern, it will make your space sophisticated.

Cabinet soffits are the spaces between the top of the cabinets and the ceiling, and here you may also install your crown molding. Running crown molding in this fashion covers up choppy-looking cabinet edges and adds an air of distinction to any kitchen or bathroom. Besides, the space looks taller as it seems that the cabinets touch the ceiling.

Installing passage doors, you will get a wide gap is left between the frame and the wall. The only way to cover up that gap is with trim. Installing crown molding is a good visual aid to signify and dignify the entrance to any room.  Also, if one of the rooms is elaborately trimmed or has a coffered ceiling, the entrance crown molding acts as a lead-in to introduce the next room’s style.
