In this video, I'm sharing how I like to trim out my windows and doors to look really high end...but on a budget!
This video was sponsored by my friends at The Home Depot as part of the #THDProSpective program.
The stars of the show in this project were my Ryobi AirStrike 18V ONE+ nailers. They made this job a breeze and save so much frustration without having to drag hoses and compressors around.
Check them out here: (aff links below)

I've used this exact method to trim out windows in my last three houses and love how "fancy" it looks compared to the typical builder grade trim installed in most homes. This is a really budget friendly way to upscale your windows and doors!
