Sounded like I did it all myself. He's the carpenter in our house, though. I'm just the assistant who hands him things and holds up one end of the molding while he nails the other to the wall. :-)Julia @ Hooked on Houseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04937060849774403002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-7754933936704625332009-04-15T16:22:00.000-04:002009-04-15T16:22:00.000-04:00Love what you did in the stairwell!

I spent most of last week up on scaffolding, painting the foyer, trimming around the 2nd-story window, adding crown molding, and replacing the chandelier. It was a huge job, and the mantra of the week became, "I will never have a two-story room in a house I live in again!"

I am always thinking of something to change. What about a large (huge) square black picture frame (you could make it) with a square blk and white picture of your son? Then you could get a wall words quote for the top one about family or something.
