Our last house had the most amazing architectural interest - with moldings and rosettes and cherubs ( 4 of them in each corner of the entrance way ) and corbels - all original to the 100 year old building and all in plaster.
It was what sold me on that place ( along with the original exposed brick walls ) and I miss them. You can see more HERE
This house has none of that...............but that doesn't mean it can't be added.
We have a small archway - and I was only able to put one on one side ( the other side is a pony wall )
but just the one makes all the difference ( I still have to touch the paint up on the sides )

I bought this piece from Amazon - for much cheaper than it was at Home Depot actually
I think it cost 15.00 or so..............
It's made from a high density urethane -
Wood ones are very expensive - and not necessary if you plan on painting them anyway.
Because it's made from urethane I was able to hang it up with just No More Nails.............it's light enough that it just stayed in place until it dried.
And then John caulked all around the perimeters - making it look seamless.
It looks more striking at night - when the grey wall appears a deeper shade.
It's no plastered cherub ..................but it'll do - once we add the crown molding - it'll definitely do
And it adds far more than 15 dollars in value to a room !
Have a great Thursday ♥
Hugs,
Me
