Crown molding question
I have the "popcorn" ceilings in my house and I'd like to put up crown molding. My question is, would the molding look stupid with the popcorn ceilings? Would there be a gap between the molding and ceiling?

Welcome to the diy forums
Painted crown moulding should be caulked - this will eliminate any gap [also makes for a more professional looking job!] I've painted a lot of homes with popcorn ceilings and crown mould.
Stained woodwork takes more skill and precise measurements/fits to make it look good.

Thanks, those are good ideas. Im actually thinking of just removing all of the popcorn after reading some of the articles on here. Its a shame the builder used it, the house is only 3 years old. Just wanted to avoid the huge mess since I am living there, and I have a 2 year old.
