Since my flash of inspiration nearly a month ago, I realized that board and batten in our house, at this time, probably wouldn't work. Mainly, because of this:
All of the trim in our house is stained. And, I'm not about to start painting it all white. Also, the top of these boards are so narrow, it would be impossible to have the vertical board and batten transition into them. And look good.
So, on to Plan B. Chair rail.
We picked up enough for the dining room and breakfast room. We found this at Home Depot for about $5.45 for a 7-foot section. Under $60 for the project...not bad! We started in the breakfast room.

The corners and nail holes were filled with wood filler.
And this is the end result!

ReplyDeleteLooks great-breaks up the wall nicely-how much does your handy man charge-per hour or per job?
