When time is short and desire is long, what can homeowners do to achieve instant results in the home with just a minimal investment? Try using synthetic millwork from Fypon to create these 10 fast economical 10-minute projects to enhance the home:
Project 1 • Create a unique window treatment by hanging a pair of classic mini scroll brackets (priced at just $20 each) to flank a window. Insert a dowel rod through the brackets and drape with fabric for a fast and easy window treatment.
Project 4 • Flank the window-sized opening between two rooms (like a kitchen and family room) with a pair of lightweight urethane shutters. Two-panel shutters, which can be painted or stained, have a price starting at $89 for the pair.
Project 5 • Add a keystone (starting at just $10 each) to the top of any interior room door to give an elegant look to the entryway.
Project 6 • Install a two-piece ceiling medallion around ceiling fans and chandeliers. These interlocking medallions go up in minutes without removing electrical fixtures and are available starting at just $17 each.
Project 7 • Use a one-piece cathedral louver trim piece to frame a favorite painting or poster. The white louver trim (which starts at pricing of $59) can be painted or faux finished to accent the image inside.
Project 8 • Make a fast towel rack by drilling holes in the center of two cove brackets (available for $26 each). Insert a painted dowel rod and you have an instant way to hang towels.
Project 9 • Install carved leaf or grapevine brackets (starting at $29 each) under kitchen countertops and shelves to add dimension and visual appeal to a room.
Project 10 • To add a farmhouse feel to a room, add wagon wheel brackets (available for $23 each) to the upper areas of interior doorframes.
