Lettered
I linked up my Board and Batten Hallway project on The Lettered Cottage on friday and I’ve gotten quite a few questions about it. I so enjoyed all the comments and questions. I’ve decided to do a follow up post to answer the questions and give you a little bit more detailed information on how to tackle the project.
The great thing about doing this project was it was a small area. It was the perfect place to try out some new skills in preparation for some bigger projects on my never ending “to do” list. The bad thing is that I did not take many pictures. I get so involved in things that I forget to take pictures! So hang in there without too many pictures if you can!
1. Measure the area you are going to be doing and draw out your board placement on a piece of paper. I have 9 ft. ceilings. I placed my top board 64″ from the floor. Not sure why I choose that, it just felt right. I actually drew a lot on my wall while I was deciding where I was going to place everything. I had to use some math skills here. I knew I wanted 5 sections so I to calculate out how to do this with the length of wall I was working with. This is where drawing it on the wall first really came in handy!
measurements
2. Armed with my very precise drawing and all my calculated measurements, I headed to Home Depot. Totally confused on what wood to use, I finally settled on 1/2 inch thick plywood. {next project I will choose true MDF, the plywood was very rough on edges after it was cut} I also purchased all the supplies I did not have. You need the following:
paint
primer
painters chalk
chalk gun
wood filler
chalk smoother tool (not sure the technical term, but this is a tool that smoothes the chalk out)
I borrowed a nail gun. I would rent or borrow one before attempting this project for sure! Lifesaver! It was my first time using a nail gun and it was very easy to use!
Still armed with my very precise drawing and measurements, I then had the Home Depot employee cut every single one of these boards! In my previous post I asked if I should have tipped this guy that saved my life. I learned from all my comments that I did the right thing by not tipping. The employees are not even allowed to accept the tips if you offer.
3. I brought home the supplies. Heard husband groan and say “I’m not helping!” and then I politely answered “you don’t need too!”
4. I painted the wall with 2 coats of semi gloss white paint that matched my trim.
step 1
5. I then sanded the rough parts of the boards and battens and primed them. Then I did have to eat crow and call hubby for help. You see I did need someone to hold the boards up while I used the nail gun. We secretly both wanted to use the nail gun. So I shared it with him. We knocked them out in no time. Here is my tip on this part. Before you get all gung ho and start your nailing, make sure the boards are all cut exactly right. I had a few small gaps I had to fill in with extra chalk because I did not do this.
6. I then filled the nail holes in with wood filler and chalked wherever the wall met the board. Easy Peasy!
7. I painted the boards with 2 coats of white semi gloss and attached a piece of decorative molding on top.
8. Screwed in the $3.73 cent hooks from Lowes.
The After
9. Added some decor and some letters to mark everyones hooks. The “d” is for Dogs, for their leashes. Oh yes, we then cluttered it up with all our crap!
The Tweaked View
So far it is working out great and our stuff is staying off the floor. However, school does not start until Wednesday. The true test will then come to see if they are hanging up their backpacks without me nagging.
My next project will be my master bedroom. I’m not sure when. I have this glorious vision in my head of what it will look like. It involves painting all of our bedroom furniture and ripping up our NASTY carpet first. I refuse to do anything in there until the carpet is gone, gone, gone. At this point I almost would rather have naked sub floor then have to look at the carpet!
I’m so glad after all these months of oohing and ahhing over board and batten projects that I finally did one myself! I hope I have inspired you to try it yourself! Grab a friend and do it together!

Oh my I love your projects , great job and great blog , this is a new keeper
Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome post! It looks great and I am doing the same thing in my hall way. My step dad is at Lowe’s as we speak picking up the boards. Hope our version looks as great as yours.
That looks awesome, great job! It inspires me to do this to a portion of wall between the front door and my kids’ bedrooms, since I live in a *small* house without a mudroom!
By the way, I’d like to make a small correction, if I may: it’s “caulk”, not “chalk”. I can only imagine how confused a hardware store employee might be if a project newbie came in asking for chalk. 
Your hallway looks AWESOME!!! I love the ledge you put on the top!….So that is my question – how did you create the little ledge shelf?
I love your blog!!! Your project has inspired me. I have done the board and batton but for the life of me cannot figure out what you used for your ledge shelf.
I was also wondering what type of molding you used for the ledge?

I am a young girl who is looking for a companion who enjoys passionate, toe curling experiences. While I work during the day, I prefer to let my hair down after 5 p.m. I need a man who can wants the action, can do the time and make me scream. Some of my hobbies are taking long walks , drinking, having a good time. My goals are to live life to it’s fullest. I’m sexy, i’m beautiful, i’m full of myself, and i love to give compliments. I like to listen to pop, R&B, and rap and am just looking for some fun right now. I am a pretty laid back individual. However, I do enjoy having a good time with friends. I love to sing. I am an avid reader. If there is anything more yo would like to know then send me a message and we will talk.
I’m a laid back kind of girl with the right person I’m not looking for an overly affectionate person who needs to be all over me 24/7. I’m also not looking for a persoin with a ton of baggage that’s constantly compare me to thier exes and bring them up we aren’t the same person so its not fair to compare. I like to go dancing, to new restaurajts, etc you name it I like it. Thats it for now I guess so write me if u want to get to know me. I’m very easy going, love to have fun and go out, but certainly fine with staying in and popping movie and chilling at home. I love to try new things in bed and would love to try them with a nice eaysgoing person too!! No commitments I just wany some fun now! I am a singles woman looking for friends with NSA. Race is indifferent to me. I lead a busy life so I don’t have time for a commitment. I want a guy who is not afraid to try new things in the bedroom.
