Measure and cut the 1x4 vertical boards. After making all the cuts, nail them into the wall using the level again as well. After all the boards we nailed to The wall, add caulk to the places where the wood met the wall. This creates a seamless look after the paint is applied. Add wood filler to fill the nail holes in the wood and to any knots to smooth the surface. After the wood filler dries, sand down with a Fine grit sandpaper until the surface feels smoth to the touch and even with the surface of the wood. Cutting & Installing The Boards Next start measuring and cutting your boards. Start by installing the horizontal top and bottom boards 1x4 common board. Make sure the boards are level before nailing them in, and then add a 1x2 common board on top to create a ledge.
Painting & Adding Storage Lastly, Paint the boards and the wall space betweenthem with the color of your choosing (color shown- Old Celadon by Behr). Add some black metal hooks for some much needed storage space!
