Plus, there is a bullseye in the top corned of each window and door, and there are plinth blocks on the bottom of each door. Do I love trim? Yes, ooops, I forgot there is wide crown molding at the ceiling. It was built in 1902. Those Victorians loved trim. And, there are transoms over the doors.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418604357948953617.post-59200719643105125382014-06-09T13:54:33.331-05:002014-06-09T13:54:33.331-05:00gourgeous trim! wow, I really like the thicknessgourgeous trim! wow, I really like the thicknessDaniela @Frugal Aint Cheaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02785196779476490372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418604357948953617.post-34992992797423995772014-06-03T17:12:35.078-05:002014-06-03T17:12:35.078-05:00I've ALWAYS wanted a cool old trunk, but my mo...I've ALWAYS wanted a cool old trunk, but my mom (the RN) was convinced one of the boys would climb in and suffocate himself.

The one that was put in the Cottage when I had the tiles done was not the one I chose. I tried to live with it, but finally when the Cottage was flooded last year, I took the opportunity to replace it!

For some reason, it helps me to clean house better? It's so funny (or not) how when we built our house 20 years ago, we had no idea about the choices of baseboard etc.. we just let our contractor handle it. If we were to build now.... oh it would be so different. I really like what you picked out Andi.<br />I changed my blog url again, sorry, I promise I'll stay at this new one.

It started out as a coffee table, but was too tall for the new sofa. It's been at the end of the bed for the last 10 years or so. ;) I love painted trim!! My house had oak trim and doors when we moved in, and I have been painting and replacing them for at least the past 8 years!cooking with curlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09973105373340275822noreply@blogger.com
