I like the look of the casing around what looks like a pantry or storage closet. I have 2-1/4′ builder grade casings in our home I would like to beef up. Would you share with me how you did this?

In reply to Holly.

Hi Holly. I’m not sure which small piece you’re referring to so but the small ones are cut the same way as the big ones. Both sides of the crown are either an inside corner, outside corner or a flat, termination. I also have a tutorial on cutting a “Return” here: https://sawdustgirl.com/cutting-and-installing-a-mitered-return-on-trim-molding/

Hi! Could you share instruction on how you cut the small pieces on the sides of the column the join the crown on the wall? We are at that point and are lost as to how to cut those small pieces. Thank you!

In reply to Mike. Hi Mike. The left side of my column is just a flat panel because I'll be building cabinets on that side. (You can see the details on the Sketch-up drawing in the post.) You can use this idea to make a 3 sided or even 4 sided column.

Is there anyway to see what the left side of the decorative corner looks like. I understand the front and the right side. The left side has me confused
