Weaber Lumber Weathered Hardwood Board Wall
Helllllllo Long lost friends! It has been quite some time since I have put up a post. I have been MIA and itching to get back to blogging. So where have I been? Well, you all know I opened up a repurposed furniture and home decor shop (called Always Never Done) and business has been booming! I haven’t had a moment to catch my breath but low and behold the blogging bug was creeping up on me. So here I am, happy to be back. Going to try my best to juggle both the shop and blogging, not because I have to but because I want to!
So while I was juggling all the new ventures of opening a shop I was still updating my home and changing things around like I always do. One of those big changes came when Weaber Lumber challenged me to use their awesome Weathered Harwood boards. They provided me with a few packs of these mixed wood boards and I arranged them and put them up on one of my drab walls to create a focal wall. I transformed my wall from grey to awesomeness!

Each Weaber Weathered Wall Board bundle contains enough material to cover 10.5 square feet and they can be bought at Home Depot here and look similar to this.
I had to measure my space and figure out how many bundles I needed and what layout did I want to do with the boards. I chose to use a staggered layout for my wall.
I prepped my wall and made sure everything was clean and dry. I started at the top and worked my way down. (I had a very level straight wall so starting at the top wall great for me. Some walls are not 100% straight across so following the line at your ceiling may end up in a not so straight look. Just make sure you are straight:)
First things first. You have to pick which color board you want use first. There are a few of each color tone of wood in each bundle. Then I used construction glue on the back of the board and pressed it against my wall.
Then I used my pneumatic nail gun to nail the piece to the wall.
At some point you will have to cut some of the boards to fit into your space. I had my saw all set up in the garage and ready to go so that I could measure, cut, glue, nail. Measure, cut, glue, nail. (Please remember to use your safety glasses, ear plugs and a mask (if necessary) when using these tools) And please ignore that my shirt is on inside out That’s just how I roll some days.
Keep this up and before you know it your space will be coming along very quickly. It took me 2 hours by myself to do this accent wall.
That’s all there is to it folks. Now I have this gorgeous wall that smacks you in the face as soon as you walk in our front door. I think it really richens up the space. Don’t you?
So 2 hours later and maybe $100 created this look. Pretty intense right!
Have a beautiful week friends!! See you soon!
