Long gone are the days of boring ceilings and lackluster home decor. With the right ceiling medallion or crown moulding, anything is possible! These eye-catching features can be utilized in a variety of ways. From covering up imperfections to adding a bit of flair to your fifth wall, either of these decorative ceiling ideas are sure to make a statement. Wondering how ceiling medallions or crown moulding can transform your home?
How Crown Moulding Transforms Your Home
Crown moulding is a type of decorative trim added to the top of a wall, where the wall meets the ceiling. Used to cover up this otherwise unsightly and imperfect space, crown moulding makes the room seem taller and far more luxurious. Today, there are several crown moulding material options available, and an endless array of profiles and styles to choose from. Not only that, but there are also unique ways to use it beyond the top of the wall and ceiling. You can use crown moulding over cabinets, above mantles/fireplaces, and even as shelving! If you’re looking to add architectural detail and elevate any room in your home, crown moulding may be your answer.
How Ceiling Medallions Transform Your Home
A ceiling medallion is an ornamental accent that can be used to glam-up the ceiling of any room. Often placed where the wiring of a chandelier or other light fixture enters the junction box of the ceiling, medallions are used to both add opulence to the room and cover up the otherwise unsightly wiring. These medallions come in a range of finishes and sizes, and can even be painted for a fully customized effect or to match the present room decor. Ceiling medallions range anywhere from elaborate and geometric designs, to simple moldings. They can be made of wood, plaster, metal or more. Ultimately, choosing which ceiling medallion is right for your home comes down to your personal style.
Forget that boring, flat, white surface, we are now in the glory days of the fifth wall!
