hundreds of profiles and can be stained, painted, or left natural. Because wood tends to expand and contract with changes in
humidity, use flexible caulk at joints and seams. Cost: $1.50 to $45 per foot.

trimmed out with basic 1/2″ strips of pine all around the front of the shelves for a more solid and up-to-date look. Very
inexpensive, but without that extra bit of trim, they would look cheap and flimsy, no matter how sturdy they are.
