I then determine the height { I installed mine at 44 inches } and draw that around the room with either a laser level or a regular level. I then mark out were the vertical pieces will go and evenly space them out and trace their locations . They do not have to be exact same space on each wall as walls are all different widths , so it is done to visually be pleasing.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9hkQFBFWvyN_oOyAf38cRvJy0uq8RijJlTYPpjLzrU24nNU9fFDLVDtnxb2m40t4X-7Ea5DYoh1jkG_rZ0wV4EzRdQzQcV-qMoYlnbPzEoLdhVXVe6IjtI7Ay8GR3JLq001uAEBN1IYg/s1600-h/moulding+007.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294913474273096482" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9hkQFBFWvyN_oOyAf38cRvJy0uq8RijJlTYPpjLzrU24nNU9fFDLVDtnxb2m40t4X-7Ea5DYoh1jkG_rZ0wV4EzRdQzQcV-qMoYlnbPzEoLdhVXVe6IjtI7Ay8GR3JLq001uAEBN1IYg/s400/moulding+007.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" /></a> I then attach the top piece which is at least 4 inches wide but if I were to do it again I would do little larger maybe even 5 1/2 inch because the chair rail shrinks the look of the top piece and I like it too be a good width, the vertical pieces are 3 1/2 wide. I them took a trim piece of chair rail and attached it to the top of the top rail , then place in all of the vertical pieces , it is really that easy . I did use some latex adhesive which is a helpful item, then I used nails to secure all trim . </div><br /><div>After this stage I then use latex caulking to fill in where the wall meets the wood and all joint seams, for a clean finish . Lastly I painted with 3 coats of white {your choice} in a semi gloss . I finished the baseboard with a sunstantial 1/4 round piece of trim . </div><br /><div>Oh I should mention , I always countersink the nails and fill them with nail filler and sand them before painting , nothing looks worse than nails showing to ruin your hard work.<br /><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIKMb-urjXug_lPoKm2ItZcIIJxjVbGNbasblsMPDFO_Kf2_GbkFd_EPRirlVp6o0Af_ZlBr0FdlDnRTpqVGTyNFYYfC_kqofLC8-uRNvjRC-R7c3dqemwm_Eo7udIo32q-k4DxqlP-jw/s1600-h/moulding+004.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294913469982849138" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIKMb-urjXug_lPoKm2ItZcIIJxjVbGNbasblsMPDFO_Kf2_GbkFd_EPRirlVp6o0Af_ZlBr0FdlDnRTpqVGTyNFYYfC_kqofLC8-uRNvjRC-R7c3dqemwm_Eo7udIo32q-k4DxqlP-jw/s400/moulding+004.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqTKDHbAJz6knD4MN6_Su0nPIl7QpVAdrn5WVh5ST6XI65lBDbPg36aOShg7_LPWStPOJ0sJSCdcXQ5jmpfNhGyIQXNlRjOkj9645gFPgNuMc5d5HetNtDox8JtU7M6-SWHTuvIadMXTc/s1600-h/moulding+002.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5294913461553463634" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqTKDHbAJz6knD4MN6_Su0nPIl7QpVAdrn5WVh5ST6XI65lBDbPg36aOShg7_LPWStPOJ0sJSCdcXQ5jmpfNhGyIQXNlRjOkj9645gFPgNuMc5d5HetNtDox8JtU7M6-SWHTuvIadMXTc/s400/moulding+002.jpg" style="WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 300px" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div>

At this price I should snatch up my dream house right , NO because MY lovely home has been losing value by the day , I am disgusted at the list prices of houses in my area . {actually some are laughable , outrageous , some sellers are in complete denial and not listening to their agents , obviously }<br /><br />GOOD thing though I am not temped at all , this house although perfect in <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">every way</span> , 4 bedroom , 4 bath , two car garage , 50 foot lot , well laid out , would never be my house , as I have promised not to move my children from the school they now attend. So although it is a deal and it is at the drywall stage waiting for all the finishes to be chosen , which would be the most fun part , it will stay vacant as it has for the last 7 months , unless someone finally sees its potential , the price reduction should help with that .<br /><br /><br /><br />So how do things look in your area ? have you been following the price fluctuations ? I always do , I like to know what my house is worth on an ongoing basis , I am a bit of a <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">real estate</span> junkie , there are some deals to be scooped , but not by me , we will ride out this wave , no need to move , any moves will wait until things are looking up , and they will .

Evidence that the housing market has all but collapsed, see this house , well I love this house , it has a fantastic floor plan and it woul...

I have a TIP

Ok , I was so excited to go on a little outing with a girlfriend today , because Lowe's is opening and I was very eager to get inside and check it out for myself.<br />My plan was foiled around 3:30 am when my happy dog jumped on me, I obviously was annoyed but still amazed my dog has figured out how to open a closed door , damn lever handles, but it was because one of my children was up with the stomach flu, I guess Lowe's will have to wait. <br />So I am home cleaning the aftermath , one blanket is fit for the trash , there is no hope .<br />Funny how I was up and steam cleaning the rug after moving Mason into my room , and hubs was snoring away not hearing a thing , that will always shock me, I mean my steam cleaner is LOUD.<br /><br />OK here comes my tip:<br /><br />I was doing a little dusting and noticing the pads on the bottom of my dining chairs were rather dusty , so I used my sticky lint roller to clean off a few legs, which was a pain and it hurt my wrists , and then it occurred to me , rip a sheet off , place it under one leg at a time , voila the perfect way to clean the dusty glider pads on the legs of furniture , one sheet did 6 chairs.

Questions

The dining table was honey pine , I used a high <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">adhesion</span> primer {<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">ZINSSER</span> 123} which allows you to skip sanding, I then painted it with several coats of paint and finished it with a clear topcoat, I ALWAYS use latex paint , I decided to paint it black and since it was already in latex I simply wiped it down and painted it with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Tremclad</span> "BLACK" paint in latex I mixed some matte and some gloss that I had to get a satin finish , I will let it cure for several days before top coating it with <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">varathane</span>.<br />I am glad so many of you like the table makeover, I do too , but I also like white and cream painted furniture , I have painted many items white , and love the look of classic white cottage style painted pieces .<br />No I will not change the fabric , the fabric on the chairs is a gorgeous linen paisley and the bench is a soft grey linen , perfect as is , I think , I was just looking for contrast for the table.<br />I have been in many homes with dark furniture and dark floors and deep walls and solid fabrics and I find that mood is gloomy I need light spaces they affect my mood in a positive way . If there is not contrast between pieces a room feels boring to me or flat , I love pattern and mismatched furniture , no matching sets for me , I have collected loved pieces over time and my home reflects that .
