Mouldings and Medallions




While we were finishing the powder room in Dave and Rita's, there was a great deal of work going on throughout their entire home. New crown moulding and ceiling medallions were being installed in their kitchen, family room and master bedroom.


New crown, corbels and medallions.





Dave & Rita's home is filled with beautiful furniture and carpets that they have collected over the years.  Rather than painting all the decorative trim white, they wanted to accentuate the Old World feeling of the carved wood.  

ALL of the new trim was basecoated in black..ALL of it. Basecoating in black gives the end product an aged patina.  The basecoat was followed by 2 passes of bronze glaze~dark, then high lights were added.










Moving right along at Dave & Rita's.  Up next:  the foyer.
