Change Your Path and Update your Kitchen and Bath!
October is the month for change – leaves are changing and temperatures are dropping. Even your home starts to settle in for the winter months ahead.
Maybe that’s why the National Kitchen and Bath Association designates each October as National Kitchen and Bath Month. Perhaps it’s simply because it’s the best time of year to enhance the two most used rooms in our homes.
Evaluate Your Home
How do you make the most of National Kitchen and Bath Month? Start by evaluating these key rooms in your house. Are there outdated appliances, broken fixtures or lackluster design elements? Would these rooms look better with new cabinets or flooring?
While you may need a remodeler or professional design expert to help with some upgrades, many updates can be DIY projects you can tackle yourself.
Going Rustic in Your Kitchen
If you’re looking up at a plain kitchen ceiling, consider adding Rustic Beams. Or, if your kitchen island needs some style, decorative boards can help.
Check out our story, “Go Rustic With Easy-Install Home Products” showcasing the fast, simple way to upgrade your kitchen (and other areas of your home!) with our Rustic Collection. “Decorating Your Fifth Wall” in a room can make a remarkable difference … and we’ve got the lightweight beams to make this happen!
Crowning Your Rooms
Walk into your kitchen or bathroom and look up. If you’re not seeing decorative crown mouldings, your room is missing out. At Ornamental Moulding & Millwork, we offer a wide variety of crown mouldings. From those with “teeth” to our unique Haute 2-in-1 mouldings, you’ll discover the perfect accent for your kitchen and bathroom.

Baseboards Demand Attention
After you’ve looked up, next look down. If your baseboards are banged or scuffed up, it’s time to say “Bye-Bye to Boring Baseboards.”
Explore our decorative baseboards that put the final touch on an updated kitchen or bathroom. You’ll discover there’s “Moulding Magic” in adding baseboards that don’t require any miter cuts. Our one-piece base connectors and plinth blocks make it easy to add style to your baseboards!
Floating Shelves
Whether it’s your bathroom, kitchen, home office or bedroom, you can never have enough shelving! To handle your cookbooks, special decor and cherished framed photos, our floating shelves are the perfect solution.
Installing floating shelves is an extremely easy DIY project. We’ve provided inspiration in our story, “Adding Rustic Shelves Around the Home.” And, check out our additional story of “The Many Looks of Floating Shelves” for even more creative ways to add shelves in your home.
