CrossWorks Carpentry.."Where Every Nail Has a Purpose"

 
 
Frye Wainscoting

 

What is currently a "Den" under renovation by the homeowner, has now reached a stage where I step in and will be installing a "paneled" wainscoting detail as well as crown moulding. I will also be installing "picture framed" details in four areas of the room above the wainscoting detail to the East and South walls. The ornate moulding used for the chair rail and picture frame work was provided by Inviting Home.
