Crown Molding – More Choices than Ever
"Nothing defines the architecture of a space more than Molding" it can breathe life and character into a otherwise austere boring space, soften the transition from the wall to ceiling, add definition, create visual appeal, and increase a home's value and luxurious feel. In today's homes, crown molding often also serves a practical function, covering up unsightly corners, and hiding wiring and cables. With the wealth of choices available on the market today both in terms of styles and materials, your imagination is your only limitation. By combining different moldings it's easy to create something unique to you.
Crown molding is available today in a variety of different materials, the most common material is wood, but higher end classic crown is usually either plaster or polyurethane. Plaster molding is heavy, and requires expertise and expensive installation. Today's Polyurethane molding is made of a technologically advanced high-density material that offers many advantages over plaster or even wood mouldings. To obtain the same rich profile and definition, several separate pieces of wood would be required. Plus as compared to carved wood, a large detail crown typically runs about 1/4 the price per ft. Polyurethane crown molding can be cut, nailed, painted and glued just like wood moldings yet has none of the disadvantages such as cracking, splitting. It is not affected at all by moisture, insects or temperature change, and is therefore often used on the exterior as well.
Because it's a molded, not milled, polyurethane molding has much more versatility in terms of styles and sizes and is available in popular profiles such as Egg & Dart, Acanthus leaf, Floral vine, French scroll, Dentil and many more. As with most other interior design decisions, the choice of crown molding size depends largely on personal preference. The size of the space must be considered, along with the depth of the moulding relief, a smaller moulding may suffice for a higher ceiling if it has heavier, bolder detail. In large spaces such as catering halls and ballrooms, crown molding is often combined with frieze molding to create a even more dramatic look.
Polyurethane crown molding installation is a much easier process than installing plaster. It is more resilient and less fragile, no special anchoring or support is required, and pieces can very easily be cut, drilled, nailed, and screwed just like wood. Nails and screws do not require pre drilling.
The web is a good place to start. There are some good resources online for finding high quality polyurethane crown molding, as well as many other fine architectural products such as decorative ceiling medallions, panel moldings, corbels, pilasters and door surrounds, etc.

5 year old summer party, outdoor game ideas?
We live on the water and have a small beach. I will set up games like bowling, boccee ball, water slide pool, badminton, air hockey table, bean bag toss, children's lawn darts, a water table etc..all over the yard for them to play with as they wish. But I would like a few more ideas as well as bigger games that can be played among all the kids ie: egg and spoon race.
This depends on how many people are coming but-
1. "Fill The Bucket"- This is a game where you get 4-10 bowls (depending on how many people are coming) and a cup for every 2 bowls. Place 1/2 the bowls in a row, and the other half in a row facing them. Fill up one of the rows bowls with water, leave the other ones empty. The kids get seperated into teams and have to Fill the cup up with water, run down to the empty bowl, pour the water in, and run back. The first team who fills there bucket/ bowl wins!
2. Simple "Duck Duck Goose"
3. Do you and your spouse/ relatives have extra clothes (too big for kids)? You can seperate into 2-3 teams and each team can have a pair of large pants and a large shirt (maybe hat and shoes.. up to you). They will have to put the clothes on, run down to somewhere, run back, then take the clothes offf and give them to the next person!
4. Hide and Seek
5. Potato Sac Race?
6. Volley Ball
You should buy small prizes for the kids when they win (go to the dollar sore maybe.. or get candy and little waterguns, etc.
