Stunning Crown Moulding on a Budget | Using Baseboards & Cheap Trim for an Expensive Look

n this video, I show you how I transformed my dining and living room with a high-end crown moulding look—using only baseboards and cheap trim from the discount section at Home Depot! With a little creativity and some DIY ingenuity, I pulled off a designer finish without breaking the bank.

Here’s the kicker: I used basic, junky tools you probably have lying around your shed. My setup included a chop saw (that wasn’t quite big enough, so I finished the cuts with a hand saw), an air nailer, and some trusty hand tools. No fancy equipment required!

To top it all off, I finished the room with a dramatic color wash, giving it a rich, dark aesthetic that ties everything together beautifully.
