DIY Wood Wall

DIY Wood Plank Wall

When my parents were here, my very handy hubby and 
woodworking Daddy slapped together this wood plank wall
in our Master Bathroom.

Regular wood fence boards were picked up from Home Depot.
 The tops were cut off and the new router was put to work 
making rounded edges on each board. 
Next the staining...
I picked out two different stains but once they were
applied, they sort of looked the same, oops!

Just one coat of stain was applied to each board 
and then a bit of drying time...and banging up each
board just a bit with a hammer.

The guys hard at work

My hubby drew lines on the wall to mark out the studs.
He nailed the boards into place with the nail gun,
my Dad cut them all to our requested sizes and I was 
their runner up and down the stairs (my workout for
the day, whew!) 

We love it and I can't bear to hang anything on it yet
but we are dreaming of something 'Tahoe' style.
I have the paint picked out for the rest of the walls,
just waiting for the perfect day to paint!

I love, love, love it! I want to do something similar in my bedroom with white planks.
