Anyone know how expensive it is to...
do something like this to a dining room. I love the look- (I know I stole the pic from someone on here... thanks)
I'm just worried it is too much- have no clue.
Thanks!

do you mean wainscotting? along the walls? I don't think it's that expensive...I think you can do it yourself...

Not expensive at all, my hubby wants to do that to our dining room too! Mu husband just said it is so easy, it is literally installing a chair rail and then using little pieces of wood to make a square and then it is painted, EASY!!! Ok, my hubby just said it costs about $30-50 to do a 10x12 room.

My parents just had this done in their house on the entire 1st floor. It cost $8,000. Each piece inside the frame is a seperate piece. It was very hard work.
Here are some pics:

I think it would be relatively easy to do if you used the small molding on the inside that would stick out, but if it were recesed molding that might be a bit more work unless they have premade panels and I would think that would be even easier to do than the first kind you posted.

I think the good crown moulding could run you as much as $10 a foot. There is no way you could do a room for $50... I thought the same thing - we are doing it, and its getting pretty expensive.
Good Luck
