WE have an old 2 story farmhouse and was thinking of this for the laundry room and using the same metal for the front of the cupboards...using wood accent walls..what do you think? Would it get too duty..our room is approximately 8 feet by 10 feet

My vote, do it! I think the would look really cool and easy to clean or wipe down when necessary. Reminiscent of an old fashioned washboard. ☺

  I hear you! Can you send the cold and rain this way? It was 80+ today . . . No rain in sight.

I think that would look amazing! A couple pieces of advice: seal it if its rusty so it doesn't get worse, laundry rooms can be humid; and make sure you have a window or good light source because a dark ceiling could make it feel closed in without it.

  Thanks, Janet. I have been following Pinterest and thought it would look nice, especially when the hubby wants to put a wood wall accent in too...wonder about looking for a lighter color...I see some sites have colored sheets..maybe a white would brighten it up..?
