Here's a project that I'm so excited to share with everyone! If you follow me on instagram (you should!) , you probably saw all the new additions of brown in my home lately. We've been staining so many things darker to add a little more depth against all the lighter wood tones that we have going on. But.. what I've realllllly been desiring to do? Paint a wall brown. & so a new project is born: Roman's bedroom. You might be thinking, "This is supposed to be a room for a 5 year old kid?" .. let's remember, Roman is not your average 5 year old kid, lol. He has been begging us for wainscoting in his room for quite awhile now. I would've loved to make that happen for him, except there was already existing board & batten. We honestly didn't want to go through the trouble of ripping it all out and repairing any damaged drywall. That's one of the things we enjoy the least! So, I decided to work with the board & batten which I'm so ecstatic that I did. It turned out better than I imagined. We painted the battens a rich, deep chocolate brown and added stained pole wrap to the inside squares for the reeded detail. It gives me wood wall moulding vibes that you see in all those amazing, old interiors.
