Ideas to finish the edge of my wall with decorative stone

chef_carol

I have installed decorative stone in some of my walls, I really like how the look like, though the pictures don't make justice, but I'm not really happy with the edges since I don't have a wall that covers the sides. The sides look like the stones have just been cut or put in there like a 3D wallpaper. One of the walls, the most noticeable that is on the entrance of the condo has just a closet on the side, picture attached for more context.

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

I'd install some wooden trim / decorative moulding and paint it to match nearby woodwork. Make the left vertical edge of the decorative-stone even by cutting where needed (e.g. middle row of upper photo). tack/glue appropriate sized stripwood behind front edge of moulding as shim. Attach the shimmed moulding using adhesive (as presumably used for the decorative-stone) Paint (I'd also grout all those stepped joints) Another option is to continue the decorative-stone a short way around the corner - some manufacturers of these types of panels allow for this. ( random example )
