Since last week, Parker has completed the baseboards, door casings, and bench baseboards. I’m in love with them! I can’t wait until the day we replace our doggified carpet with wood and put these baseboards throughout the first floor!

This picture isn’t in the mudroom but shows you the dramatic difference in height!

Here they are installed in the mudroom!

Ok. Now we need lots of opinions. We are about to come to a screeching halt unless we can make these decisions.

To “quarter round” or not? This really isn’t quarter round but would have a similar effect.

Next, we can’t decide what kind of crown molding to do. This one is really stumping me. Here are some options, but we are also up for other suggestions.

One issue is that all of the inspiration photos I can find for farmhouse board and batten don’t really have crown molding. It is something more like this:

However, this type of “crown” wouldn’t work on the lockers. There has to be some type of crown molding on the lockers – like you would have on kitchen cabinets. I don’t think we can do something different on the wall and locker, either (even though we did on the bottom). I think the crown needs to be consistent from wall to built-in like this:

Let me know if you have opinions! We can’t start building the top of the lockers until we know how tall our crown molding will be! We need to get this show on the road!
