I picked up some crown moulding this weekend.

Unfortunately, I could not get a piece for one round corner. All of my
other corners are square. Can I just square the round corner off, and
apply putty/paint in that empty space? Will it look OK?

Many thanks.

An outside corner or inside corner?

Sample outside:

This is an outside corner. I wish I could get the piece for the corner,
but it is not available. Thanks.

Would the sample above not work in your case. The two pieces you see
at the corner might be cut at 22.5 °. Check the angle on the wall.

Test and play with a couple of small pieces until you get it frog hair
close.

Many homes here have the bull nose (round) corner bead and this gets
around the corner using these cuts.

What kind of saw are you using for cutting the crown? Maybe you have a
"kit" type install (just square cuts and corner pieces)?

That particular piece would not work, but you did give me an idea.
I will shop around and see if something else would work.


If you can find *other* corner pieces (another brand) that has both
inside and outside corners just exchange what you have. Something like
this style?

I think it is a mitre saw, but not positive. A friend will be helping
me with this.

Many thanks.
