DIY Indoor Stone Accent Wall

In this video we show how we transformed our dinning room wall with a indoor Stone accent wall. The assembly method we used is called the dry stack method. In this method you mortar the back of the stone to adhere to the cement board wall and leave the edges of the stone touching one another. This is the equivalent to doing a giant wall puzzle. We love the way it turned out and can't wait to get our fireplace renovation going so stay tuned.

Looks wonderful! Great job!! How is the outlet finished so that there is no gap for children's fingers to find? Did you fill gaps with mortar?

Did you take the time to calculate the pressure produced by the weight of this type wall on your existing structure???

Nice job guys! I am looking to put up an stone accent wall in my kitchen for a Tuscany look. Not sure that i am equipped to do this. Great video!

[@fathersondiygarage3580]

It is easier than you think! This is one of our first stone projects and we love the way it turned out!

Is this the same process done for exterior walls? We have stucco and want to add stone accents in the front.

What did you do with the outlet? getting ready to do this type of project and sooo happy I found your post!! VERY HELPFUL!

[@gusshelgosh4724]

Some guys use a outlet extension bring outlet flush with wall

[@ItchyBurrito]

What did you do with the plug cover?

[@alitsah]

What do you do on the bottom so water and fuel doesn’t get underneath the stone?do you just get it as close as you can to the floor?

[@fathersondiygarage3580]

We just set the stones as close to the floor as we can. You could also cut the stones nice and flat for a tight fit

[@lynneeschmidt2580]

Did you use a real stone or a faux stone? Any concern with weight on the wall?

[@fathersondiygarage3580]

Faux veneer stone. No concern with weight. We strapped our concrete board to the wall really good. And we are on a concrete slab foundation.

Come on guys, you totally messed this up. That hole for that outlet should have been cut way smaller so the end tabs rest on the new wall.
