The first drywall is step is 9 inches from the edge of the crown molding and the second drywall step is 4.5 inches. You could use poplar instead of drywall, but there will be seams where two pieces of poplar come together and these seams cannot be taped and painted the way drywall seams are taped and painted. For that reason we recommend using drywall with edge beads if you plan to paint the steps to match the ceiling and crown molding. Good luck with your project!
