Master Bedroom Addition

Update 9-25-17
Floor and Fixtures 












6-5-17

Over the weekend I added the trim to the bathroom door and painted. The Parts of the door trim are similar to the pillasters on the sliding door. They are recessed and built by using 3/4" MDF and panel moulding. The top portion was built using pine on and using a method on the table saw of making a raised panel similar to a cabinet door. There is crown moulding on the top and some smaller panel moulding under that too.




Here it is in place before being primed.


I filled and primed it off the door so I could really do a good job getting into all the tight spots while filling and priming. 




I added an appilique in the center after it was installed. I painted it separately and then attached it. It's much easier than trying to paint while in place. 



----------------------------------------------------
So on this project we are working on a newly constructed master bedroom addition that is 13'X32' with a vaulted ceiling. We are matching the existing trim style in the house which is a Victorian / Crafstman style throughout.

The first project was installing the three piece flying crown buildup along the top of the wall. There was also the window which was trimmed out using the same two moulding profiles as the crown.

For the three pieces of crown I used a common baseboad for the bottom which is available at any big box lumber yard, a common crown profile for the middle piece and  a cove profile for the top.

The window trim is made up of the same but with a smaller crown under the sill. I would have used the same crown as on top but to keep it tighter to the wall the smaller one worked better.



Here it is after being primed. At this point the ceiling, walls and trim are still all just primed. 

Now here it is with some paint before the wall has any color on it.

This is the trim around the sliding door. I built some raised panel pilasters for the sides and used the same crown with the cove on top. The crown molding shown in this picture is before the primer was on that's why the cove on top still shows the wood color. The baseboard a crown are MDF and the cove is pine.
