How to create a beautiful too cheap simulated shiplap wall!
You guys, I am SO excited nearly our novel simulated shiplap entryway wall! This was a spur of the 2nd projection that popped inward my caput on Fri nighttime too past times Sat forenoon I was putting planks upward on the wall! The best purpose nearly this DIY shiplap wall projection is that the total terms was less than $50.00!
My married adult man pretty much gives me total reign of the decorating inward our house, but that doesn't hateful he doesn't milkshake his caput at a few of my ideas. When I mentioned I wanted to plank the wall inward our entryway, he looked at me too asked, "Can nosotros merely destination ane projection earlier starting some other one?" Well, no....no I can't. I stimulate got a slight job of non existence able to sit down still. I stimulate got to live doing some form of projection or I teach a fiddling crazy. It may seem similar I've been jumping merely about from the garage too mudroom to our laundry room too directly to the living room too I have. That's merely how I roll.
So, spell I'm waiting on the conditions to warm upward to coat the garage floor, the finally inspection to lay the mudroom floor too assist on replacing our laundry room tub sink, I decided to add together an cheap plank wall to our entryway.
Here's how our entryway looked earlier adding the plywood planks.
Now for the fun part.
Before I started putting the planks upward on the wall I added a quick coat of white paint.
Then my wonderful married adult man went to Lowe's too bought 3 sheets of 1/4" plywood that he had cutting into vi inch pieces. A give-and-take of warning, they create non guarantee that the cuts are even. There were a few boards that were shorter than vi inches too some that were vi inches at ane cease too v 1/2 inches at the other. Thankfully, at that topographic point were alone nearly 2 or 3 boards incorrectly cutting too I was able to select grip of myself from putting them upward on the wall.
The woods that nosotros purchased was nearly $12.00 a sail too already primed. All it needed was a skillful sanding to polish out some of the petroleum edges.
Before I started nailing upward my boards, I used my stud finder and marked all the studs. After the studs were marked, I started at the laissez passer on of the wall too worked my agency down, making certain to degree each too every board. Do non work your ceiling every bit a guide too assume it is level.
You tin come across that at that topographic point is a gap on the right side, which was easily filled amongst caulk. After my start board was degree too inward place, the balance of the boards went upward fairly quickly. I used nickels every bit spacers too merely worked my agency downwards the wall. Since the boards varied, the infinite betwixt each board did cease upward varying slightly.
Owen too I too then got to painting! He was quest all twenty-four hours when he would live able to assist me pigment too was super excited to help. This boy definitely takes afterwards his mamma!
Tip: Use a credit menu to swipe betwixt boards to take whatever pigment drips.
After nosotros were done painting, I went to blast the cut slice to destination off the wall too afterwards merely 2 nails the fuel cartridge ran out on my nailgun. I didn't experience like running out to purchase a novel one, thus let's merely pretend that purpose is finished, okay?
Are yous ready for to a greater extent than afterwards pictures?
If you're actually observant, yous may likewise notice that I changed the mirror. This dark beauty was previously hanging inward our little hallway betwixt my kid's bedrooms, but directly it has a novel home. I merely dear how it pops against the white wall!
It's incredible how much adding a $50 plank wall completely changed hthe aspect too experience of this space.
I stimulate got ane to a greater extent than update for this infinite too if yous caught Wednesday's inspiration post yous may live able to gauge what's coming next!
****UPDATE****
I finally painted our front end door amongst Sherwin-Williams Iron Ore too it was just what the infinite needed!
