Pro tip...if the walls aren't straight, scribe the boards to the wall and cut them out. It's a PITA for sure, but looks clean. You could also fill with joint compound or caulking, which is easier. And for the ceiling and vaulted pieces, miter both boards so you don't have to use table saw. Take that angle and cut it in half. Boom. Really nice job!
That wall is stunning!
And kudos to your mom on the paint color choice. I can't wait to see the finished room!
Thank you!
Love how the wall with all the squares on it came out!
Haha - thank you!
The wall looks great! Nice work Sam. I can't wait to see the rest of the room makeover.
Thank you! Can’t wait to share!
You really simplified the process and made me feel like I can do it! Great video!!
It does look epic!
Loved the color, by the way. I can't wait to see the finished room
Thank you so much!
That wall looks DOPE Sam! What a job!🤘🤘🤘 The puns tho...woof. 😂 ♥️
HAHAH. So, I shouldn’t quit my day job to become a comedian?
So excited for this whole room makeover and I am so glad you decided to make a video for this! It looks amazing! 😍
Ahhhhhh. I can’t wait to share alreadyyyy. 😫
That's stunning! Adds so much class to any wall! Time to take on the master bedroom wall now!😆
Yess! This makes me so happy!
That turned out so well. I really like the way you adapted to the outlets and window trim. Great detail in the video, and 5 star work.
Wow, looks amazing. I’m getting ready to attempt this on a wall in my home. Kudos to you for tackling what looks like a challenging wall. 👍👍
It's gorgeous, Sam! Fantastic job.
Thank you so much!
That wall looks so phenomenal! Your mother is so luck to have a talented daughter like you! 😊👍
Beautifully done!!! Thanks so much for the tutorial!
Looks really great, Sam. I'm glad your mom is happy with it. Take care.
Bill
Thank you!
Ficou muito lindo! Amei a cor.🥰🥰🥰
Great job! On most the houses I’ve done we’ve kept the baseboard heater the same color throughout. On an accent wall like this it can make the wall stand out even more.
Thank you!
So good! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the room!
Thank you! Can’t wait to share!
I love this! It turned out great. I've been wanting to do this but the wall has crazy angles and I've only seen videos with a straight box shape. Thanks for showing it can be done with the angles
Thank you! So glad this was helpful!
Hi Sam...your wall looks epic as you said, I can't wait to see your mom's reaction...Take care...stay safe...
Thank you! Can’t wait to share the reveal!
You really did a great job Sam! Doing this type of work for 40 years...im impressed...here we call it a library or lawyer wall...I do it quite a bit different....
Ohh - library wall sounds so fancy! Thanks for the love!
Perfect job so far! Thanks for sharing the video with all the tips and your unforgettable sense of humor.
Haha - thank you!
Sam…you are so talented. As always, the project looks great.
I will be anxiously waiting for the room makeover. 😊
Thank you! I can’t wait.
Wow. Great diy.
Awesome!! Can’t wait to see the next episode. Thanks
I AM SO EXCITED! 😍
Stunning, great job!
Sam, you ROCK!!! 💪🏼🔨🪛🪚
Hi Sam, the joint between the first piece and the second piece is effectively a mitre joint. you should have found the angle of the ceiling at this meeting point and then divided that angle by two. you should then have cut the meeting ends of these two boards to that angle. Then they would have been the same width as each other.
I came to say the same thing. If you don’t miter both pieces then the “length” of the joint faces will never match up.
So are u brad nailing to studs??
Wow... Just wow... That wall is epic. Well done! Can't wait to see the whole bedroom ❤️
Thank you so much! Can’t wait to share!
Love the color
So happy you made this video. I have been waiting since I saw the sneak peek.
Ahhh! Sorry you had to wait to so long! Hope it was worth it! 💓
I've been trying to decide what to do with a 9' x 16' bedroom wall that I want to make an accent wall. After seeing this project, which is beautiful, I have decided that board and batten is definitely NOT the way to go for me.😅 I just don't have the skill set or energy for such a project. Thanks to videos like yours I am able to narrow down my possibilities.
How wonderful!
That moment on the floor was so real haha! We've all had that moment when we're like "at some point I will get myself off this floor / couch and do what I need to do, but I'm going to stay here for now".
Your beautiful personality made this video! Great job
What a great job you did, perfection, it looks so classy, brava! 😊👍 Blue is my favourite color so I love that too. I always admire your perseverance and attention to detail no matter what, and it shows in your results. 💞
Thank you so much!
Girl, this is exquisite. Love love love it.
Thank you! 🥰
So impressive!! Loving your work! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
The wall looks amazing Sam! Great job
Thank you so much! Hope all is well! 💓
LOV IT :) NICE DIY
Came out fantastic. We have bought some land and starting to design our new house and I think I want this as an accent wall somewhere in our house.
Thank you! So happpy for you!
The baby gap pencil, the couture paint suit…that WALL 😱! Amazing! It makes the room look bigger! It’s soooo fantastic! Your parents have a rad daughter 😁!
Ahaha - thank youuu!
You have done an amazing job Sam and what a daughter you are to your parents. You obviously think the world of them and it shows in your love and dedication to these projects. As a dad myself, I hope my kids do something like that for me someday.
Thank you so much! My parents are seriously the best. So grateful to them for letting me build on their property and in their house. 💓
Fun video. Great content and great results!!!
It’s absolutely gorgeous 💜
Thank you!
It looks fabulous thanks for all the hints and tips 👍👍👍
Thank you! Of course!
Just beautiful
The before and after is almost hard to believe. What a difference, wow!
Thank you! Can’t wait to share the full reveal!
I just finished the same type of project. I bypassed the tape for the visual and just did a scale drawing instead. I also snapped horizontal lines on the wall. I tried Brad nails at first, but I didn't like the way they held into the drywall, so I opted for sheetrock screws. I also opted for 5" wide MDF boards. Drilling the holes and countersinking for the sheet rock screws took a bit of time. I countersunk them enough to fill with putty later but then had to prime the filled holes (150). I opted to use a roller and brush and a one coat coverage paint. My wall is 25 ft long and 11 ft high to the peek. I had about 30 hrs invested, which includes time at HD cutting boards to approximate lengths
Amazing, professional, on point, lovely.
Thank you!
Wow! It was a monumental task but you slayed it quite well. I am also loving the color you chose, it adds a different feel the room.
Thank you so much!
@@diyhuntress You are welcome! 🤗❤️

Great video. Project was a ton of work. Looks fabulous. Mahalo for sharing! : )
Thank you!
Nice job!!
Thank you!
Parabéns pelo trabalho perfeição no acabamento
Thank you so much!
Love it!!!!!
Thank you!
Looks amazing 👏 I wanna fo something similar in my bedroom! Here's a pro tip: When using a jigsaw you should always tape the outline of your cuts bc not only does it make it easier to see but more importantly it protects your finished surface from scratches.
Looks great and good video. On the strip that you ripped narrower at the ceiling your issue was you didn’t half the angle and cut it on both pieces like a mitre.
You are amazing!! Just love watching you create these amazing spaces. I would love to start basic DIY woodwork. I live in Anaheim Ca. Would you recommend anywhere I can take an intro to tools, etc. in my area.
Thank you so much for sharing this video - this gives me so much drive to want to do this in my livingroom! I have a question and am hoping you see this question seeing this is an older video - how did you decide how far apart your vertical boards were going to be? Thank you again for taking us along! You are so young and so talented!!!!
wow it looks amazing 😍, Very impressive very sleek 💯
Thank you!
Looks good , I’ll be doing my room like that some day but I’ll use a darker color gray or maybe black.. good job Sam..!
Thank you!
Awesome job!
Thank you!
Awesome work…
Thank you!
Lovely!
Thank you!
Great Video!
Thank you!
Good work. I add this for your viewers’ benefit: MDF and primed pine are not created equal. MDF is cheaper, but weighs a lot more (important for both handling it alone AND getting it attached to the wall). MDF cannot get wet (no mopping of floor with MDF baseboard) But MDF dust is cancer-causing and because of the amount of sanding you will have to do at every intersection where you have two boards crossing, I would not consider MDF.
How about plywood? Is it a better choice?
@@bradfung I would use primed pine for this project.
You did an awesome job, what color paint did you choose
Girllll That is Awesome! 👏 you just got a subbing 😳I’m Impressed 💯👍🏽
Thank you! Stoked you’re here! 💓
Man who cares what people say about your walls! The fact that you did it yourself speaks measures. You saved a lot of money and it looks great! Of course the pros are going to critique your work. If everyone did diy they would be out of a job. Diyers don't pay attention to folks when always have something to say. ( Well I would have done it like this or I would have done it like that. To the trained eye it looks whatever but to diyers it's looks great. Saved money on material and labor! I salute you for at least trying and making it look good for yourself. Thanks for sharing!!
This board and batten wall looks really cool!! Tip not asked for.. Never use caulk to fill in gaps between wood. This would have come out much more professional looking if you'd have used a wood filler or even drywall spackling. I know the extra step of sanding really bites the dust but the finish is so much nicer. As a professional perfectionist it would drive me crazy to look at it like this.
OMG you just made me feel so human.....lmao " so why did I agree to start this project?" love this.
Sheesh 🥵 you did a freaking great job! You had me anxious the whole time because you seemed way to comfortable on the later haha I was like please don’t fall please don’t fall.
Ahaha - nooo. Don’t be anxious! I’m so used to it.
I appreciated the pun lol this is looking pretty darn good!,
Hahah. Thank you!
The wall looks as great as you ! Well done , new subscriber x
Yess! Thank you! Welcome to the crew!
Thanks I’m now in a crew how exciting
Absolutely love this. I’d like to have one of walls done. Wondered how much I should pay someone to duplicate on a 12’ x 10’ wall?
Nicely crafted..
👏👏
Thank you!
the color is epic ! it might seem like a simple squarish wall to others but its not easy at all to get all " boxes " as precise as that !!! well done !
PS , that hexagon strange window was totally taken from the show " Lost " 😂😂
OMG. NOT PENNYS BOAT. 🤣
What color paint did u used for the wall cuz is so beautiful
at 9:02, I learned the lesson too by my own mistake. The problem isn't the wall, it's the miter cut. Both angled piece and the top piece need to be miter cut 50% of the angle. Otherwise, the top piece in your video is 90 degree, it will NOT match the length of the edge of left piece which is not 90 degree. Both pieces have to have the same angle in order to have the same length on the edge. Hope it helps future projects.
Sam! It's gorgeous! Great job! I know your mom is thrilled. ❤️ So... When does your HGTV show start?? 🤞😊
Thank you! A girl can dream!
Ahhh C'mon Sam, now you're just showin off!!! Nicely done SuperCat!! Soooo classy lookin. Hoping all is well, Dirty Jersey out!!
You’re the coolest. Thank youuu!
Weird angles brought me here. Stayed for the good energy!
Ok what color is this? Love it!
Hi Sam, how many coats do you spray and do you peel off the pre-taped after spraying or wait until wait dry and peel off. appreciate ❤️
What a smooth finish! What kind of sprayer did you use?
I used a Fuji sprayer! Definitely a splurge, but so worth it.
Great job. What color did u use?😊
Great video & job well done it looks like you painted the base board heater, did you have to use a heat resent paint?
Thank you! Not necessary to use heat based paint, but definitely necessary to sand and prime. I break that down a bit more in the next video!
That angle issue you had around 9:06. I think you can avoid that if you cut half the angle on both ends rather than the whole angle on one end. So like 22.5 on both the top and the side instead of 0 on the top and 45 on the side.
Then you can keep the piece full width instead of having to rip it down.
But even still, the end product looks great!
Maybe! That entire section of ceiling was about 1/4” lower than the rest of the room. So, it was a lot easier to just rip it. It blended well too. Wouldn’t be able to tell at all if I didn’t show it in the video (but, I like to keep it real here).
