My hubby had a four day weekend when we were working on this project. We were able to get so much of it done--then it took another month of late night and Saturdays to finish it all up.
Before during and after.
The top is a soft pink. The bottom is semi-gloss white. This room is the sunniest in the house, if we ever paint the white I think I will go with a softer white.
Each of the boards are 15 inches apart. We had to move some of the boards for outlets and light switches.
A mitered corner.
Each corner of the boards are mitered cut. When making the plans we made sure to start the measurements from the corners--so each wall starts from 0 instead of just continuing the measurement all the way around the room.
My hubby can now cut the finished corner of the crown-and it looks great :o) There is a 3 inch shelf across the entire top of the board and batten. It is a perfect spot for little frames or statues or other little trinkets six year olds like to collect.
This looks awesome - it adds so much character - love it!!
