Having symmetrical elements in the room, like the chairs on either side of the shelf, along with the big photos, makes it feel a little more put-together and finished.
KNOW.. Not to worry!Here’s how it looks today!.

You can read more about that crazy adventure of a renovation here!.In other bedroom news, our master bedroom looked like this for the first 2 years that we lived here and it made me absolutely crazy.. Today it looks like this!.Well, actually that’s how it looked last year right after I finished with the project.

If I’m being honest, right now today, it’s a little bit more of a total mess than that.Also no pumpkins.

But let’s just pretend that I took those pictures 5 minutes ago and that I do have pumpkins in there in August because I’m just a super-prepared blogger like that, K?.
Anyway.. We also have a living room in this house!In projects where you need to clamp something and let it dry, it builds strength quickly and offers up to 75% less clamp time than many other adhesives!
So it’s basically the new glue of choice around here.Here are our largest moulding pieces, all cut out and ready to go.. We applied a bead of adhesive to them….
…and then we tacked the trim in place using just a couple of nails from the brad nailer..There isn’t really any way of using clamps on cabinets like this, so a couple of small nails were able to hold the heavy oak trim in place for us until the adhesive dried completely..
