We got overwhelmed with some of the bigger house projects we had to do so for a break we decided to tackle some of the really small stuff...like fixing the little piece of molding that got knocked off when we were painting the upstairs hallway.
Joe made fun of me pretty much constantly as I was taking pictures of us nailing in this little piece of wood into the wall.
Here is what the corner looked like before with the piece missing:

I saved the molding that had gotten knocked off and collected my supplies - a couple little nails and a hammer.
Now nailing it in was much harder than either of us thought it would be. See Joe, it was good that I documented this just in case anyone would need advice on how to nail in a little piece of molding in a small corner. (Joe's response: I am sure that is a common household issue that happens all the time.) Whatever Joe.
So what you have to do is lean over and nail upside down so that you can get into the corner and still get leverage. We also found out that getting the right length nail is important. At that hard of an angle, once you get it through the wood and a bit into the wall you want to be done nailing.

And the final product!
Pretty cool huh! Sorry I promise I wont have a lot of these. Mostly because Joe will take my camera away.
