I personally haven’t seen anything in this style in anyone’s home yet, but it must be the latest craze if Restoration Hardware says so.. Well, if you think that chair is impressive… Check this out!.
From the side, it looks like a regular mitre, but it’s got the extra little right angled bit that adds extra strength..The decorative molding goes right over top!.
It looks super simple but of course we know that there’s a little bit of DIY magic hiding hiding under that basic molding!.At the bottom, a basic 2×2 piece of lumber allowed him to create a little “sill” for the chalk to sit on.He finished it off with some more decorative molding.
The end result looks pretty and classic, and it’s exactly what I had in mind!.When it came time to hang up our fancy new chalkboard, we couldn’t just do the basic “nail in the wall and a piece of string” method, now could we?
Well, actually I totally would have if it was up to me.
Or I would have just hot glued it right to the wall.Well, actually, it always bugged me, but it actually started to bug Chris.
So I jumped on the opportunity!.With a big fancy table of my dreams sitting in the middle of the room, it seemed silly to hang something cheap and not so great over it, so we ended up splurging a bit on this one.. Can you blame us?
(On a side note: does anyone know an easy way to get those light bulb info stickers off?I don’t want to make a big mess on there, but it really has to go.).
