Awesome job!! I love how when you have an idea, you just jump right in and do it yourself!! Just shows that us ladies can do anything we set our minds to.
This is the most realistic portrayal of of DIY as a newbie. I really appreciate the honesty and imperfections of the final result, because let's face it, that's how it is for most of us doing DIY 🥲.
This makes me want to give this a try. I have loved this look for a while too. Just need to have more confidence in myself. Yours turned out beautiful!❤❤
The reason you didn’t have enough battens is the calculator was counting the number of panels (spaces between the battens) - that’s 5. It calls the battens “stiles” and that’s what you needed 6 of. Don’t ask me how I know this or if I’ve made the same mistake 😬

I've learned that the wood is always either 1/4 to 1/2 shorter than what it's labeled. You did a great job on it!
Thank you so much!

I am LIVING for this color right now!! 😍

Thanks for sharing, i just encountered the large gaps between the top board and vertical boards so now i am searching on you tube to help fix this.
I really like this good job

I’ve always wanted a nail gun too. I’m totally going to try this. Thanks for sharing.
That’s awesome! You can do it! 🙌🏼
I prefer the mistake to that flat flushed look! ❤ - that 1/2 inch top batten I believe it was.
I love it! Great work!
Thank you!
It looks so beautiful! Great job!!

This is very nice. I’m getting ready to remodel my bedroom this gives me inspiration thank you Mallory
I’m so happy to hear that! Good luck with your bedroom! 💕
I just found this tutorial video and you did a great job! It was very helpful!
What saw did you use to make the few cuts you made at home?
Thank you!
I have an uneven spot on the wall behind one of the battens so the top board has to sit out a tiny bit. You can always shim to hide the gap at the end
Did u add hooks?
Nicely done! what size nails and how long are the nails that you used?
Wood measurements are measured before they are planed

Looking at your measurements your spacer is 8''3/32 not 8''3/8 that is why the end panel is 1''1/8 shorter than the others but great job looks good
