Giving Our House an Update With Wainscoting and New Paint

My husband I had been thinking about adding wainscoting and repainting our entire living room, dining room, and family room for quite a while - but you know... life tends to get in the way of those sorts of projects! Now that a lot of things in our life have calmed down, we decided to take the plunge!
We started by taking everything off the walls, covering our furniture and sanding the walls down.
Sanding, puttying and spackling the walls took a loooooong time, but it was so worth it! When we were ready to paint it went on so smooth.
The wainscoting went up next.
Then we painted, painted and painted some more!

    I've always wanted wainscoting but how do you install each frame and keep each one level as you move along the wall? My fear, of course!
