Around the casing I could not add a back band because the trim was too shallow , so I added a simple piece of square edge stock pine finger jointed moulding which beefed up the casing , I would have loved to had all new but there was no room on the right side of the jam for anything more substantial so the added trim was my solution.
I added a perimeter of trim two inches below the existing crown and painted it all with a few coats of fresh white.
I added bead board to only the one wall where the ledge protrudes , I still plan on adding a sill.
I sanded the bead board to smooth out its rough texture , but ended up liking the look so much I left it that way.

I installed the beadboard about three inches above the baseboard and covered the raw bottom edges with this chair rail moulding , it fakes the look of a deeper baseboard.

This was a cheap and easy update for our powder room , a great choice rather than ripping out all the existing trim , instead I worked with it , warning , working in such a small space is annoying but worth it .
