Crowning Your Home

You don’t have to be a king or queen for your home to wear a crown!  

Crown mouldings add a statement to any room --- bedroom, dining room, kitchen, family room, and yes, even a bathroom. Whether you desire a complex, attention-drawing crown or a simple piece of moulding to cover the gap between your walls and ceiling, we can help. 

Showing Off Your Crown 

You can’t imagine all the options available in crown mouldings. From dental to rope to egg-and-dart, there are dozens of styles to choose from. We manufacture everything from crown mouldings with a clean, smooth look to highly-stylish mouldings. One of our favorites is the fashionable Haute 2-in-1 Moulding.

This innovative decorative moulding provides you with the opportunity to install two-tone crown moulding in any room of your home. How do we achieve that? With each Haute 2-in-1 Moulding, there’s either a removable gold rope or silver pyramid wood insert. First you paint the primed crown moulding. When it’s dry, you use construction adhesive to fasten the prefinished gold or silver insert trim in the moulding. Easy! 

Installation Tips 

Recently, influencer Michelle Felux, with Breaking Down the Box, installed our crown moulding in her renovated guest room/home office. In her online story, she takes you through the steps of measuring, cutting and installing crown moulding. Her step-by-step story helps you understand everything from making a jig to mitering corner pieces.

While Michelle went “all in” to get her perfect crown moulding, there’s an easy “trick” to not having to miter corner pieces at all. All you need to do is make straight cuts in the wood and, when you get to a corner, use a corner connector or corner block.
