You have inspired me over and over again over the years as you have so many others. You really have a gift. Our family also made a huge move this year that was difficult in so many ways and I empathize with you completely. Thanks for being willing to share the bad with all of your amazing good. Hearing that amazing women like you and Gabby Blair have hard times too helps us all feel more normal. Good luck with the arm and with everything else. I'm sure there is only greatness in store for you and your family for the rest of the year!Brett and Sydniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00866352792912695248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-10988293092736641332014-01-22T09:58:14.126-05:002014-01-22T09:58:14.126-05:00We just did this on our Library/Family room.

Super easy. I'll send you a picture if you like. The fascia is just a 1/4 - 1/2 thick and then the molding on top.

I thought I had a steady hand...but the contrast of blue crown with the light ceiling was harsh. I ended up using the tape method for doing crisp stripes to get an acceptable line on the ceiling.<br /><br />I am excited to see how you handle the entrance molding...right now, the baseboard and trim around the opening is currently white in my LR b/c I had trouble with where to stop on the molding framing the entrance.ROKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00472941692160664140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3009168790894665633.post-28031751723678485562014-01-22T03:47:15.945-05:002014-01-22T03:47:15.945-05:00Definitely put more moulding on the wall.

I want to have that super high-gloss finish that you get with oil based paint but apparently, a lot of stores (at least where I live) don't tint oil based primers or paints anymore so I'm just using a tinted latex primer and the already tinted Rust-o-leum gloss black oil-based. Is there another way to get that oil-based shine? I'm intrigued by this "top coat" you speak of!

That blue is amazing, and I totally agree with your decision to paint the mouldings the same color. I was wondering if you could comment on how you choose to handle the transition between rooms when switching trim color.<br /><br />I saw a couple readers comment on this look being prevalent on the Downton Sets. Another show with gorgeous sets where I noticed a similar look is Boardwalk Empire. I haven't had much success with locating photographs of interior sets from the show, but I'm thinking about doing some screen captures.<br /><br />I'm glad you are continuing to post. This is my favorite interiors blog.
