Interior trim installed
The last step in the professional work we're having done to our livingroom is complete: carpenters came yesterday from Perfect Painters/Heritage Builders and installed crown and shoe molding. Will and Luke transformed the look of the room in less than a day of work.
Livingroom, painted, no trim.

The new trim, like the old trim, is pine finished with amber shellac. The crown molding was made at Danby Hardwoods, from a pattern in Shop Drawings for Craftsman Interiors. Ken from Perfect Painters stained it to match the orange of the old pine trim we have. I still have a lot of work to do cleaning up our old existing trim, but it's good to have the room's (re-)construction completed. As I did for the earlier painting, I've put up a gallery of pictures showing the work being done. The first few images are the trim before it was stained and finished, then the installation, then the results.
