A project for all woodworkers out there - craftsman style trim for your walls and lintles. I'm rather lacking in the tools and tablesaws frankly scare me (I have two woodworking uncles that are now down a few digits thanks to those things) but for those having the tools and lacking the fear, this is a great way to give your house that extra touch.
For the rest of us - well, I was going to say that Home Depot and Lowe's can help but, judging from their websites, I'm not sure they can - all the mouldings and millwork they show are so fiddly and curvy and so not craftsman style. Annoying. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised, however, if they have a larger stock than their website shows. To make up for it, at least a little, check out Lowe's Moulding Visualizer little interactive program. Like the websites the moulding is all contemporary or country and anything but craftsman but it at least lets you see the amazing impact moulding can have on a room. I love a light colored wall with dark stained trim. So chic!
