    PRO TIP: When using construction adhesive lay down a bead of circles instead of lines, it creates a vacuum and helps the panel stick to the wall better.

      Lisa Porteous there are concrete adhesives that you can get at the hardware store. Just find one that can be used with wood. There are also concrete anchors you can use, but I don’t think I would with this type of project.

      I would use screws. So screw the large sheets to the wall and then cover the screws with trim or frame.
      The real why I would use screws is they are strong and they do not require setting time like an adhesive. And then if I wanted to I could put shelves on the wall easily.
      I would use sheets of plywood instead of mdf If I was needing selves/cabinets.

      @@lisaporteous3689 that should work, but make sure to have some boards to brace to the opposite wall to hold your pieces up against the wall while the adhesive dries. You could also use adhesive which has directions to cut the piece, apply adhesive to the back, then pull it back off the wall and let it stand open for a couple of minutes, then put it back up; it is supposed to stick better then.

      Hey Bradley, can you please share how to move an outlet? Electrical wires are generally stapled to the studs in the frame stage and then covered by drywall. I can't think of how a person could go about moving the plug from one stud to another without opening up the wall. Thanks

    • @bradbeam7254
      @bradbeam7254 4 роки тому +2

      Mark P there is usually some slack and you don’t have to move it much. Cut a new hole and put a remodeling box in the wall. Use the cut piece of drywall to seal the old hole. Thing is that you have to use your existing wiring without splicing. That would make it a no no. Check out finish carpentry TV’s channel.

    • @MP-yz6sb
      @MP-yz6sb 4 роки тому

      Bradley Beames thank you Bradley. I had no idea that electricians leave a little slack in the wires. Sounds like there may be enough slack to move the box from one stud to the other but within the same bay? It’s been a few years since I walked a house in the frame stage.

    I like that you include you actually doing most all of the steps. My wife is an interior designer by trade and actually had a similar taste in style.
    Just a thought if you ever have bad results from a big box store's panel saw or it is down. Kreg makes a very handy tool, Rip Cut, that is pretty in expensive ($40?). I have been very pleased with the results. The WWMM channel had suggested bringing a cordless circular saw to get plywood to fit into your vehicle, which I think you had in a video - mine is corded.
    Keep up the good work!

Apply a light sand again and then apply the final coat of paint. It will look as if it was professionally sprayed.

    Looks great. I may try this idea in my home. I have a carpenters tip for joining two boards together. When you need to join two boards together as you did for the top boards you used a but joint. It is better to cut those boards at a 45 degrees. That is not 45 degrees like a picture frame but 45 degrees like you would for joining two baseboards in a corner. The 45 degree overlap will hide any lines from showing later when the wood shrinks a tiny bit. This is also good for crown molding as those boards will shrink and make the line very visible.

    Nice. Well done. Especially the backboard and seam spacing.
    Consider that the baseboard is also part of the wood work.
    Maybe match the old or replace it all. Think about using the same color on all the wood work in the room.
    This would give you a professional original look that doesn’t look like an afterthought.

      behind the panels.

    This came out so pretty. Love your channel. Quick question - is it important for the Brad nails that hold the verticals to go into studs or just into the drywall is good enough?

    • @supervictorio
      @supervictorio 2 роки тому

      My understanding is that you can nail into just the dry wall since the brad is there just to hold the board until the adhesive dries/cures.

    Love your wall! My husband and I are going to try this in a couple of weeks! I'm going through your list and the link for the baseboard trim isn't working. Is there something else that you would recommend? Thank you!

    Thanks for posting this video, super helpful. What color is the rest of the room? I think they go together really well and may possibly use the same. Thanks!

      @@kathyusa-iowa5137 moving the outlet would have left a cleaner look by not needing to notch the board. Because Stefani was covering the wall with the panels anyways she could have done it and not worried about patching the hole from moving the outlet. It's a minor detail that a lot of people don't do but can make a huge difference when your installing paneling like that. Moving an outlet though is something that many people choose to not do due to fear of electrical shock.

    An old painter once told me, if you are painting darker colors, use a a dark primer, I've never seen a black primer, so I suppose you have to mix it. But anyways, white primer will make dark colors appear lighter, requiring more coats to get the color you originally wanted. He said grey primer for paints like red, blues and greens, and white for yellows and oranges I think orange. I drywalled for years and never knew.

      Regardless of the color of the primer you'll most likely give it 2 coats of paint... Only when I'm using emerald i give my walls one coat and in my opinion is better for the walls to be white and whatever white primer left can be used on other projects. Been painting for many years and have used a colored primer once or twice.

    Looks great! I want to do something like that in our bedroom but not sure if it’s going to go behind the bed or not. Can you do an accent wall without it being behind the bed or is that a no-no?
