This afternoon we received delivery of about 3000 lineal feet of poplar moldings for our ceilings from Hiland. I have bit off more than I can chew, but there are some efficiencies in ordering in bulk. This delivery includes everything I’ll need for the boxed cornices in my parlors and foyer, coffered ceiling in my dining room, and crown moldings in four bedrooms. All of these rooms will also feature a picture molding approximately 18 inches below the ceiling, which I ordered, and the principal (first-floor) rooms will have a dado molding (“chair rail”) about 28 inches above the floor.
