Yes Or else cut slices on one side to make it bendable. I saw it done on a old remodeling show
Some molding is fairly bendable. What trim you can use depends on the look you are trying to achieve. As someone else mentioned--if you turn it over and cut lines into the back of it horizonally to the length of your trim it might make it more bendable. But...you have to be very careful not to get the cuts too deep or you may risk breaking it as you are trying to bend it and nail it.
Nope. They sell flexible rubberized molding or prefabricated wood molding.
You need molding intended for curved areas. Most molding isn't flexible enough.
