We also do the yellow pages thing too (just call a few people, get them out for estimates and pick the folks we like best). Good luck! xo, s

And in the rare occasion when you do hire a contractor, how do you go about finding them? Craigslist? Yellow Pages? Angie's List? Thanks! Do you remember who you hired to do your crown molding?

(insert mock shocked face here) Seriously, I'm glad to know that y'all don't do it ALL and that you get to treat yourselves and each other occasionally with having a professional come in to do projects. But that leaves me still with a question as to how hard crown molding is to install.... I just painted my bathroom in horizontal stripes a la your bathroom from your first house and was thinking of really taking a big step and trying my hand at installing crown molding (I thought by starting in the bathroom, I could see just how hard it was before I committed to doing the whole house).... oh, well, off to Google! Just thought I'd let you know that you guys were my first step. Yep, yall were my PRE-Google step!

Hope it helps! xo, s

I found your blog 5 days agao and I love it (kind of hard to focous on work ever since...) I was just wondering: is the molding made out of styrofoam or something else? Thanks Jenn(ifer) from Germany (so unfortunately no shopping at all the places you go to) Hello!

Some people say that ceilings should be a standard 8 feet or taller to accommodate crown molding while others use it to add architecture and dimension- even when the ceilings are lower. Why not grab a small three foot section of molding for a few bucks and hold it up and see what you think? Good luck! xo, s
