Modular molding system

A method of installing a modular molding system about a ceiling in a room comprising the steps of:

• providing a plurality of molding sections having horizontal alignment portions and angled face portions and first and second ends wherein one of the first and second ends is of a size greater than the other to allow for sequential molding sections to overlap and nest;
• overlapping sequential molding sections to create a molding of a desired length;
• adhering overlapping sequential molding sections together;
• and
• adhering the molding sections to a ceiling.

A molding system comprising:

• a plurality of molding sections each having:
• an angled face portion having an upper edge, a lower edge, a first straight end and a second mitered end wherein the second mitered end has a dimension greater than the dimension of the first straight end to allow the second mitered end to overlap the first straight end of an adjacent molding, dimensions of the angled face portion drifting downward from the second mitered end to the first straight end.
• a horizontal alignment portion having a forward edge, a rear edge, an upper surface and first and second ends, the horizontal alignment portion formed integrally with the angled face portion and joined with the upper edge of the angled face portion along the forward edge;
• wherein the molding sections are attachable together to form a molding of a desired length, and the molding sections are adhered to a ceiling.
