I recently turned an unused room upstairs into a second lounge/ retreat. I had a vision of making it feel warm and cozy, a place to just chill and relax. I was able to achieve this mood with selective furnishings and a dark feature wall.
Steps
Step 1
1/5I attached a 1200 x 2400 sheet of Easycraft primed wall lining to the wall using metal screws into the studs. (We have steel framing in our home).
Step 2
2/5Next, I attached moulding on top using constructive adhesive and a few screws into the studs.
Step 3
3/5Once everything was attached to the wall, I used gap filler to fill the screw holes and along the top of the moulding. Once dried, I sanded it smooth.
Step 4
4/5Next was the fun part, painting!
I started by cutting in with a trims brush along all the edges, corners and inbetween the grooves of the paneling and then I did the rest with a roller. The colour I used is called Namadji by Dulux.
I did 3 coats.
Step 5
5/5Last step was sitting back and enjoying. 🍷
Wow @prettyliving!
Such a stunning moody feature wall that really balances your gorgeous timber beams and makes that space warm and cozy. The Namadji colour really makes your cute hanging plants pop as well. Thank you for sharing your cutting-in tips. Members inspired by this project should check out this great article How to paint like a professional.
Beautiful work!
