After the studs were up and the wiring in, there was a lot of discussion to determine the material for the wall. Drywall? Beadboard? Tongue & groove? We opted for the same 8" horizontal tongue and groove pine board treatment that we used on the master bedroom closets...


Here it is with the tongue and groove installed and the outlets and wiring in place...

You'll notice that the tongue and groove is pine, while the cabinetry is oak. Not a problem! That all gets remedied in the next phase...paint!
Let's recap, shall we?...
NOTE TO READER: We're getting there! Thanks for staying with me. It took us 8 months to complete it, so it will take a few days to show the entire transformation. It was definitely a process!!
I love the tongue and groove boards!! It is all coming together and yes...I so understand about getting things completed. Amy you guys have done a great job and still going. Love it...can't wait to see it all!!

ReplyDeleteI know you didn't paint it. So, I'm anxious to see what you did do. Too good a grade to paint. I'm sure. And we don't paint wood. Right??? ~Mindy

I too love the tongue and groove boards. The corner cabinets are a nice touch to the area and I love the extra detail you added to them on the lower sides. Beautiful!

I can't wait to see the painted project. I keep studying the detail and trying to picture in my head what it's going to look like.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice with the tongue and groove.
I see some lovely vintage white painted corbels in the photo...part of the final plan?
