Abstract
A decorative molding system removably installed at a juncture of a ceiling and a vertical wall, said molding system comprising a plurality of thin molding strips of flexible plastic having a length and an upper free edge, a lower free edge, a front surface and a back surface. The upper free edge is adapted to lie against one of the ceiling and the vertical wall along a line spaced from the juncture of the ceiling and vertical wall and flex relative thereto. The lower free edge is adapted to lie against the other of the ceiling and the vertical wall along a line spaced from the juncture of the ceiling and vertical wall and flex relative thereto. A corner in the room is formed by a first flexible molding strip mounted along a first wall and extends toward the corner of an intersection with an adjacent second wall. An adjacent second flexible molding strip is mounted on the adjacent second wall. The adjacent second molding strip has a free edge cut to a configuration corresponding to the configuration of the cross section of the first flexible molding strip after it is in tensioned position on the wall, such that when the second molding strip is placed into position on the second wall…
