It did come out pretty nice, but as a carpenter you always start with a piece in each corner, then space it out from there. It creates a more realistic illusion of actual woodwork. Excellent job though.
@@703Fefe Very good question. With switches and receptacles it's about the layout, and avoiding notching the material. With that said, I would move the light switch box over so it was either completely in the wall part, or in the first vertical board running next to the casing. Changing it into a single gang narrower box in the process. In this case, it was easier for her not to do any of that and still get a very nice result. But, as a hired contractor I have to look at it in a different way. It's all very situational and really depends on what you are ok with in the end. I always tell people, it doesn't matter if I like it, do you like it? Hope that helps and good luck with your projects!
The Flipped Piece this is Amazing! What a difference. You took a boring wall and made it a sweet focal point of style and homeyness. You're a MAGICIAN!
The irony here is that this style was borne from solid plastering being so expensive before sheets, that you had it from the ceiling and down the wall as far as you could afford, and then met it with timber panels, and lining called Wainscoting. It was introduced because solid rendered plaster was so pricey, and milled timber cheap, and is now seen as ornate, and reproduced OVER plaster sheet, using composite panels because timber is now so expensive because trees gone.
@@bend3rbot isn't it sad? I didn't know about that process, but I did know that Chinese builders ordered heavy, gorgeous wood from America for the Imperial Hotel because desirable wood there has been over-milled.
That was very innovative of you. But just a little observation of mine (im an architecture student btw), putting the cornice that low made an illusion the the ceiling height is lower, but overall, great work!!
@@virginiaomalley It looks great how she did it. It was a common practice to have the high placed shelf. This was done as a decorating feature not architecturally. Check out past periods of homes in how decor used in the function of families. Different countries around the world have interesting features.
I'm really glad to see you using color ! I'm sick to death of all beige and brown tones, and grey ones also. Growing up, my mom was the diy'er, and we had COLOR on our walls. She changed curtains,pillows and area rugs for updated looks from winter to summer, and our home was filled with books,art, and music. So is mine now. I can't paint in senior housing, but I've hung some beautiful large weavings that give the impression of wall paper.
would love seeing your wall hanging decor in apartment! make a video...a lot of folks are in transitional housing..and would love new ideas as well ..thanks...👍
I just want to thank you for sharing all your hard work! Not only do we get this see all these beautiful and cool things but you give us ideas! So thank you!
I love this DIY. It’s very simple and easy not complicated like some of them that I’ve seen to redo the entranceway. This gives me the urge to redo my entranceway. thank you
I loved all your innovated ideas!!! U got me motivated and probably mines are not gonna be as great as yours but I will try to do my best!!! Thank u so much for showing us your crafting decor !!!
😉It certainly helps a lot when content creators leave us a list of materials. However, don't be shy about asking the advice of big box employees. Never met one in this department that didn't have some wood-working & product knowledge. I designed & helped build a faux built-in library wall for a friend. It was an IKEA billy hack, but I needed wood for a base to stabilize the units & also trim. My BFF had a unique situation with carpet we couldn't remove & an open end where there was a glass sliding door to the balcony. It took a lot of research to find DIY projects that included our unique variables as well as our very basic skill level. We also had to make do w/a power drill, level, studfinder & hammer too. 🤔Plus, there were 2 outlets on that wall, so we had to figure out work arounds for cabinet lighting while still having access to 🔌power. The billy instruction booklet came in handy to create my own step×step plans. Using their product drawings helped me visualize & think out the order of each step, so I didn't forget anything🔩. Also brought plans &📷photos of my project links as back up to show them. The multitude of clerks @ L's & HD were extremely patient & kind. Great ideas to secure & stabilize the units, best products to use, etc. Also about lighting options. 🪚They did the cuts too. We left the original footboard & crown molding intact, but worked around it. Attached a new header & used double stick tape on the footboard trim to temporarily unify the units. In future, it can be disassembled & reconstructed for new flooring. Still secure 3 years later & thrilled it's getting major compliments from visitors. Happy DIYing. 🍀Good luck! 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
It’s beautiful! I would of done it half way and add a section for decor…a small table nook small bench/ottoman slides underneath and a little welcome setting on top…
Love this!! How difficult would it be to remove if I am in a rental property? I would definitely puddy up any holes but will it create real damage to the walls when removed?
I love it too. And don't listen to negative comments. People trying to give you tips and ideas but that wouldn't be your signature anymore. Im a carpenter and all i can say is don't change you.

Thanks for this advice!
Good idea!
Great tip
This is good advice! I’m curious what you would have done about the light switch on the one end getting in the way?

Simple, easy , minimal material and the result is great.
I think you made a world of difference in a plain area, and I really love the color you painted it.

Funny this talented, industrious and pretty American lady makes me want to lie down for a rest🤷🏿♂️🇬🇧
You can do it. Trust yourself
I completely agree, you have a sublime sense of style and artistry!!
Parabéns! Ficou maravilhosa a arte!😍🤩👏👏👏👏👍😃😘🇧🇷🇧🇷

As an architecture student that's the first thing I thought of :)
She can cover the ceiling with mirrors to counterbalance the illusion 😁
Should she have gone all the way up to the ceiling then? Just wondering in case I do the same thing.
@@virginiaomalley yes! I think i looks better doing it all the way to the top
@@virginiaomalley

Nice. FYI: columns are up and down… rows are side to side, across
We don't care
Definitely one of my favorite board and batten I’ve seen I love the extra decorative trim and the handles, color is gorgeous
So lovely to read this! Thank you so much!
It's FABULOUS! What a highly skilled person you are!
And you are so fun, too! (Your little leaps🤗).
Probably the 4th video I've seen... so talented! Love to see a woman take charge of her space, I want to try some of this stuff! 🙂
Thank you so much!!!
Really nice design. Simple but effective.
I would literally pay you to do this at my home. Love your videos, and to say you're talented is an understatement!! Keep 'em coming. Love from 🇬🇧
I live in the UK so I’ll be right there to help ya do
This! Haha 🙌🏻❤️
I am so in love with this. ..the colour, the hardware, the wicker...WOW!
Awesome. Thank you for sharing. Have a great weekend. 👍
She's loving that dried sage. She's so good! I wish folks would stop picking at her!!!

This is so beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your story
This is not a color to me. Color is when it is bright, red, blue, anything. But this is still very grey-ish, with a hint of green.
would love seeing your wall hanging decor in apartment! make a video...a lot of folks are in transitional housing..and would love new ideas as well ..thanks...👍

Pretty amazing, SUBSCRIBED!

Love it! Loved the color, the organization and the purpose! You aced this girl!
Obsessed! I have one question, what kind of MDF did you use? There’s so many options at my big box store that idk what to look or ask for!
Same here, please let us know!

Is that carbiard...? Or is it wood?
Now THIS is something that I can see doing to my home, THANK YOU! It's a GREAT, very CUTE addition. Two thumbs up!! 👍👍
Doing little inexpensive things like this can really transform a space and if you don't like it; it's easily reversible.
Gorgeous!
_"I nailed them to the drywall. I wonder why everyone doesn't just do that"_ 🤡
Wow! I totally didn't see that outcome coming. Absolutely gorgeous!!
Great job! You’re awesome! Never stop!

I LOVE IT!!! I think I need to do that in my little entry way to add some texture, color, interest and decor. What a difference that made!
Gorgeous!!
Very clever and a beautiful result. I like the color too.
Love this!! How difficult would it be to remove if I am in a rental property? I would definitely puddy up any holes but will it create real damage to the walls when removed?
