Kitchen Cabinet Crown Molding

Other than replacing the cabinets, or refacing the doors, adding kitchen cabinet crown molding is one of the best ways to add charm to your kitchen. You can choose a painted crown molding or purchase a hardwood to match your cabinets. In most cases the crown molding is a little smaller than you might find on the walls, its generally 2 1/4" - 3 1/2 " in size. Installation instructions are the same as for walls, and can be found in this website.
