Five Fast Interior Home Accents

Want to feel good about yourself and your home? Then set your sights on interior home improvement projects. Smaller projects, like upgrading insulation, adding millwork and changing stairway systems won’t bust the budget or cause too much chaos in the home.

Our experts at Ornamental Moulding and Millwork recommend these five easy-to-accomplish projects that can immediately enhance your living space.

Project #1: Decorative Stair Risers

Make stepping up on your stairway more elegant with Reversible Risers that feature a reversible shiplap / beaded planking version and an oak / primed version. Primed and ready to install, the risers can be painted or stained and then glued on over existing risers to give a stairway a new look.

Project #2: Fashionable Mouldings

Say farewell to boring mouldings. Replace them with fashionable Haute 2-in-1 Mouldings available in two-tone crown, baseboard and chair rail. Available with either a gold rope or silver pyramid removable wood insert, the mouldings come primed and ready to paint.

Tip #3: Floating Shelves/Mantels

Easy-to-install Ambrosia Maple Rustic Mantel Shelves can be used above a fireplace or as a floating shelf in any room of the home. Select from various lengths along with the option of having a black wrought iron decorative trim as a focal feature in the shelf or mantel.

Tip #4: Ceiling Beams

Look up around your home at the ceilings. You can transform a boring room into a warm gathering spot with either Ambrosia Maple or Prestained Gray ceiling beams. The hollow, eight-foot-long beams are easy to install and come with mounting plates and hardware for installation.  Whether you add one beam down a ceiling to designate different rooms or create a criss-cross pattern, the U-shaped beams install quickly and add elegance to the home.

Tip #5: Rustic Mouldings

Add richness to any room with casing, crown, base and chair rail mouldings that feature an insert replicating a hammered wrought iron appearance. The Ambrosia Maple wood used for the mouldings includes distinctive hued bores that run with the grain to help set apart the black wrought iron insert. Designed to blend with any design style from contemporary to farmhouse to mid-century modern, the mouldings can be used together in a room or individually as accent pieces.
