Paint

The paint we used was a primer/paint that we got from Home Depot. Since it was a small area you only require a ‘sample size’ and it was sufficient enough for two full coats. Sample sizes are around $7. Paint color is called: Sage Brush & it is by Bher. (S370-3)

We used a mitre saw for clean angles. You can use a handsaw but the finish might not be as nice and it would take longer.

We used a hand saw in home depot to cut the moulding down to bring it home. Then at home we used a mitre saw for exact angles.
