I want do the same thing, use our existing walls in our nursery as the "boards" and just install the battens with a nice trim ledge on the top! The instructions you gave were awesome, but will you explain a little more how you dressed up the ledge on the top of the horizontal trim piece? I think that will be the most challenging part for me. Thank you, and again, beautiful room!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00165071520504040119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8439096455763788298.post-45049192834017377882010-04-14T10:35:46.759-07:002010-04-14T10:35:46.759-07:00I have just come across this and had to leave a co...I have just come across this and had to leave a comment to say that your room looks fantastic - I love it! <br /><br />The board and batten idea is one that I am seriously going to use whenever I get a chance and I love the compass point etc. <br /><br />You created a really stylish classy room - well done!Susannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09581993763700327953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8439096455763788298.post-7662517751454792582010-02-19T09:50:59.870-08:002010-02-19T09:50:59.870-08:00Wow, I'm glad I stumbled upon your blog!

Our rear entryway has a built-in wood topped bench (natural maple) that I would love to install the board and batten above with hooks. The bench is unfinished under/beneath it, otherwise I'd love to remove it.

It is by Benjamin Moore and it is called "Wedgewood Gray" #HC-146. The color in the living room is also by Benjamin Moore, but it is one shade lighter from the family room. It is called "Woodlawn Blue" #HC-147. I have both of them shown on my side bar so that you can see the difference between them.<br /><br />Hope that helps!<br /><br />~KarlaKarlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12034882074673788286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8439096455763788298.post-87482092975910990662009-05-26T18:33:26.306-07:002009-05-26T18:33:26.306-07:00Hi, I just stumbled across your blog - love your t...Hi, I just stumbled across your blog - love your transformations!!<br />I also love the wall color in your family room and your living room - are they the same color??
