Hey! Welcome back to another episode! In today’s video I’m walking you through the steps I took to create my easy diy board and batten accent walls down my hallway. The calculator we used is a free tool online called inchcalculator.com. We used primed MDF stiles 3.5” and cut at approx 48” high. Top trim board was a 6” primed mdf board. Upper wall is Quaint Cottage by Magnolia. Lower walls are Sherwin Williams alabaster.

Diy Board & Batten Hallway :) My first attempt at something like this! I love how it turned out!!

What finish did you use on the board and batten? Obviously not flat paint--was it satin, eggshell, semi-gloss?

@pnwhomebody 4 ай бұрын

I started with semi gloss to match the trim but went back over it with a matte finish as I wasn’t loving the shine all the way down the wall. I left the bottom trim semi gloss and the rest is matte.

A trick I learned recently. Spray windex on the crevices before you start caulking. It helps the caulk go on smother and wiping off the excess is a lot easier. You did a great job. It looks amazing!!!

i would love to do this but i suck at math and have no idea what 8 11/16 looks like on a ruler

@pedroolea2563 5 ай бұрын

Looks great! Did you have issues when you fastened the stiles, with the finish nail gun, in areas where there wasn't a stud in that location?

@pnwhomebody 5 ай бұрын

No issues at all!

Did the veryical boards just sit directly on top of baseboards flush?

@pnwhomebody 3 ай бұрын

Yep! Perfectly flush with the base trim!

How wide is your hallway? I think ours may be too narrow.

@pnwhomebody 4 ай бұрын

Our hallway is 4’ wide. I think standard is 3’ - But even in a narrow hallway I think this would look great!

How long did it take overall?

Thanks Rhonda! This entire project took about a week :)

it looks great but I am completely on the fence about whether to conceal wall texture with 1/8 hardboard panels or not - you painted over the texture and used a fairly shiny paint (or so it appears from video) My preference would be to not use hardboard - wish there was a better close up of your walls with B&B installed -great video, thanks

@pnwhomebody 5 ай бұрын

Thanks so much!! I honestly think it would look better with the panels but I’m not at all bothered by the textured look so this worked out okay for my first attempt!! :)

Board & batten is an old Nordic style & used on the exterior of barns. Historically speaking, the walls weren't smooth so the texture could be seen as being accurate. Someone used plaster thinking it was joint compound on stud nail pops in my house before I moved in. I plan on disguising the damage with the battens. Half full not empty glass..

@carlwebinar1571 6 ай бұрын

Why not paint the wall first, then apply the stiles?

@pnwhomebody 6 ай бұрын

That would have made it easier 😂 but the stiles would have needed to be painted regardless so we just put them up and went with it! A professional sprayer would have been the best bet but this was what we were working with :)

@carlwebinar1571 6 ай бұрын

@@pnwhomebody I would have painted the stiles prior to install as well, then just touch up the fastener blemishes.
