Very nice. I like what you did with the wainscoting. This may be an option for my living room once I start on it.

thanks deb

thanks brian , wainscoting is my favorite thing to do . help yourself to it !

Well done, Mr.Trim! Do you make your own mouldings? What’s the type of paint you use on them?

thanks damocles , i only make a few mouldings most i get from weiss hardwoods which is across the street from my shop . the homeowner did the paintwork on this project himself , i think oil base

Hey Verne;

Nice job here!

As usual this is an outstanding job. Personally I don’t like wood and paint but diversity is what makes thing interesting. The 3 piece crown looks gorgeous.

thanks for the post.

thanks lee
thanks scott

Nice work MrTrim. I like that extra little shelf above the closet.

I wonder if it needs a glass cover to prevent it from getting dusty? I can’t imagine too many people getting out the ladder to dust it each week.

thanks bill , dust is not an issue they have a housekeeper ! lol

what? you are supposed to dust?

-- ~ Debbie, Ontario Canada

no deb your supposed to have a housekeeper ! lol i thought about getting married and haveing my own housekeeper but i did the math and decieded to hire one ! lol

haha too funny
well I had kids.. but they grew up and left home!

funny , mine did the same thing ! they call once in a while the conversation usually has something to do with my checkbook !

but don’t you love them :D
I’ve told my kids that repayment comes in the form of THE best senior citizen home they can find when I am no longer able to care for myself.

i hear ya deb ive always said when you get old and sickly and maybe have an accident in your britches once in a while you need someone around that really loves you ! lol

ain’t that the truth!!
when I facilitate parenting programs and anger management programs for parents that is one of the messages I try to get across: what do you want your children to be like when you are “old”? How you treat them now is developing who they will be when it is their turn to care for you!!

-- ~ Debbie, Ontario Canada

thats right ! exactly why im going into the masonic home when i get old ! lol

I really like the detail of the fluting in the wainscoting, thats a really nice touch.

thanks joey , its becoming one of my signature designs it seems . everybody wants it lately even on some of my built ins .

I love this look. It is so comfortable. Really nice job, MRTrim.

thank you kindly blake

The details make you want to look further, and you know this was done with much thought. Qualty shows!

thank you very much paul

Looks like a nice project. Did you do the painting too?

thx bull, this guy has hired several different paint contractors over the years that ive worked for him and not been happy with any of them so he does it himself . it about takes him forever but he gets it done . i think it took him about 8 months to paint this office ! lol ive done a ton of very cool projects in this home , and retrimmed the entire house . maybe ill hunt some photos and post them

Nice work!
