Hi, y'all. Well, a BIG shout out to Ann, from Medford, OR. She posted this project sometime back and it was exactly the idea I needed that I didn't even know I was looking for! Does she rock, or what!?!?! icon

Anywho.. with the help of my roommate, I finally got my living room completed. Well, okay, it's 99.6% completed. BUT, those out there in Computer Land who live with fibromyalgia can vouch for me and tell you that when you reach THAT point...it's done. For now.

The only differences that I did were...

I didn't use the bullets to break up the boards. I just let the pictures do that.

And...we put a 1x3 chair rail around the living room and kitchen to help tie it all in.

We also used "WHAT! You're gonna throw that away? Naw, man, I can use it, if it's ok with you!" reclaimed old pine flooring as batten boards on the wall behind the piano.

We painted the hallway and 2 remaining walls a light grey, using Wal-Mart's Color-Place Flat Interior. I "think" it was $14 a gal, but PLEASE don't quote me on that, cuz I have had at least 4 good night's of sleep in the last month so all bets are off now!! icon

Pictures were taken with my trusty phone, so don't write to Kodac or somewhere like that to inquire about them. They would just answer you like my family does.. "Kathy WHO?"

OK.... ready or not..... Ta Da
This, of course the batten board wall, cuz THERE'S the piano!!!
Ran out of room! MY son has informed me, however, that there is such thing as too much. That was after I made a comment of using the ceiling for the rest!!!
And HERE is the TV and "stuff" that I keep out.
Suggested materials:
  • Reclaimed wood and Grey paint   (Neighbor's house for the wood and Walmart for the paint.)
  • Wood Glue used in between the boards   (Rural King)
