  • average girl tries panelling a staircase? August really does slip away like a moment in time when you spontaneously embark on yet another completely ill-informed DIY project with absolutely no appropriate tools, knowledge or skill. So join me for my first attempt at panelling, which also served as a gentle reminder that me and mathematical accuracy are not natural friends.

    You did a phenomenal job Lucy!! 👏🏾 The panelling looks great and you’re right, the green really brings out the beautiful, rich brown tones from the wood.

    As someone who has failed multiple attempts at mitered corners, I truly tip my hat to you! Also, I do paint as a side hustle and buying the best paint you can with your budget is money well spent. It will last forever and spots will clean up nicely. Great job!

    Right so my boyfriend watched your WDW vlogs with me and he just came in not long after I started watching this and was like "oh it's the Disney lass! Hopefully she doesn't get sick half way through. I'm so sorry, Lucy, I couldn't help but laugh when you then said about your food poisoning. BUT I really enjoyed this, I've been eyeing up their panelling sets for a while so nice to see them in action!

    I love your sense of adventure. I really wish you wouldn’t say you have zero talent…this from the woman who took apart a couch to get it in the house then put it back together…stripped and totally refurbed the stairs…you are amazing🥰🥰 I love the panel look and the color is stunning. I know what you mean about farrow and ball. I redid my primary bedroom in the spring and fell in love with farrow and ball Hague blue. Living in the us, the cost was prohibitive, so I went to Lowe’s which is our big box diy and stuff store and the paint guy made it for me. There is nothing as satisfying as seeing your vision come to life. It’s now my fave room in the house. You are my diy idol😘😘

  • @brinagotsued

    It looks AMAZING! I also thought pink or green would go great with the stair runner 😊

  • @Cheryl_Loves_Purple
    @Cheryl_Loves_Purple Рік тому +1

    It turned out really nice! As a general rule, you want to match the color used least in a pattern (fabric, carpet, etc) & use that for your paint, & I see that green in the carpet. I think you made the right choice not to use a pink shade, it might have washed out the runner blending it all together.
    I am not a carpenter at all but I am a crafter so I have to give you some future reference info, lol. That blue miter box & the big flat saw go together. You use the slots on the miter box for your angles, they give you straight lines. The hack saw you used to cut the wood is a much harder way to go & the cuts can end up wobbly.

    I think you are underestimating the challenge and skill presented by those angles! When I saw what you were doing, I couldn't believe you tackled that paneled stairway yourself! Angles are super tricky and mind-bending, so the fact that you made a few goofs is completely understandable. Kudos to that company for putting together a kit and making a complex project like that approachable.
