So we went to Home Depot with the intention of getting white bead board and were were going to hang it sideways (horizontal) to give a sort of faux shiplap look but when we were there we saw this beautiful wood paneling.
Who would have thought the words “beautiful” and “wood paneling” would go in the same sentence?
The paneling is textured and you have to get really close to see that it is paneling and not actual wood planks. It was only $34 for the entire sheet, and we had to cut off about 2 feet to make it fit.
After using a nail gun to install the paneling we decided to finish off the edge with concave, quarter inch moulding. We found plastic pvc moulding for half the price and it worked so great. It looks just like wood after caulking and painting it!
I love this idea, but I don’t think we have the room in our backyard! Maybe we just need to expand our closet further under our stairs… 😉
This is such a great idea and it turned out great.
Thank you so much. We are really enjoying the space.
It looks great! Couldn’t tell that the wood is paneling. I like that you broke down the prices of your project so we could see how much it cost.
It’s textured even so it looks like real wood panels but a fraction of the cost!
This is a great idea. I’ve never thought about taking the doors off of a closet to do this!
Oh man, with little kids I hate closet doors. I feel like they fall off the track too often. It opens up the space so much.
Wow great job! I dont think I can do that lol
Sure you can! It was really simple and not very technical!
