I thought I would just show yall what we have done so far. Once again, this is Jesse using a miter saw. Maybe I should show him this just in case he has forgotten how it works!

If you look a bit closer maybe you can get the just of how it cuts angles.

I measured and cut out a poster board the size I wanted my box to be. We go through a lot of poster boards around here.

Just a look see before we painted.

Yep! Heres that kid again looking thrilled. Right~

And wha'la..its done..well almost. Still another wall to go but I didnt want to keep yall waiting forever.

Once you paint it makes the whole wall just pop. It really looks like wood molding!

I thought the corners would give us heck but Jesse put his math skills to work and impressed me!

I just sat back and watched..I only put my two cents in every now and then.

So this is where we stopped. We still have one more small wall to complete,sigh.

So here is the completed side now follow me to my backdoor I have something else to show yall!

Check this out. It's that neat beadboard panel that you can buy at your home improvement stores. I wanted a more casual look for my backdoor and I love it!

I must admit, this was a bit easier to do than the molding. You just measure and cut and glue it up there. I used liquid nails and a few tiny nails here and there. I also used caulking....lots of caulking...tons of caulking! Im working on curtains now for my kitchen.So just how much can I get out of one panel....you'll see!
Looks GREAT. Your son did a WONDERFUL job. We (or should I say hubby) are doing wainscotting in some of our new rooms. I love the look.
ReplyDeleteoh I love it! Do you mind sharing the wall color name? We are building a house and I've been searching everywhere for the perfect blue.
ReplyDeleteSusie, that looks beautiful. I LOVE the white with your blue walls! Great job!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! Looking forward to seeing your kitchen curtains :)
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!
OHHHHHHHHH Susie..that looks BEAUTIFUL!! Ok..tell me, did you have to take any of the molding down? I want to do the bead board around my kitchen bar. Girl that looks awesome!
ReplyDelete{{Big Hugs}}
Cathy
beautiful!!!!!! i LOVE it! I guess I have to wait a while until my 2 year old son can do projects like that. :)
ReplyDeleteYour son did a FANTASTIC job! Absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteabsolutely beautiful! tons of bang for your buck and effort!!
ReplyDeleteLooks great, Susie! I love how it's turning out in your DR, gorgeous. And I really really want some more beadboard in my house too.
ReplyDeleteDid you have to remove the baseboards to put that up? That's what I don't want to have to do when I put up some beadboard. I'd love to know that!
Suzy that looks great. I just love that look.
ReplyDeleteSo PRETTY!!! It looks so great! I love that color blue too. I love beadboard and just love that.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Thanks so much for your sweet comment. :)
Wow, looks GREAT! We are going to do beadboard in our kitchen when we get to that project. I am so excited and can't wait to get to it! First, we are working on my son's nursery and our front porch!
ReplyDeleteSusie, Nice job on the moldings and the beadboard paneling. Looks really nice w/ the light blue paint. Casual but classy look!
ReplyDeleteAll the best, Sue
Susie, it is beautiful! And your son must have quite the sense of accomplishment! It really does make the difference in an already beautiful room.
ReplyDeleteWe keep going back and forth on if we want beadboard in our dining room or not. It would be so much easier than taking down all this paper...ugh! We could just stick it up there and be done! Well, not exactly, but you get my point. : )
ReplyDeleteAnd that "moulding" looks GREAT! Your son is very handy! I can't wait till mine is old enough to help me with projects!
It looks fantastic!! Little things like that really make a huge difference.
ReplyDeleteYou have got to be one proud and grateful mom...and his wife to be one day will be so lucky!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful. You son did a great job. Maybe I can get my son to do some work for me. Love the soothing colors.
ReplyDeleteSusie ~
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful...love it!!!
Have a beautiful day!!
T
Oh, Susie, it looks great. Can I borrow that son and those math skills? LOL I can't wait to see the curtains.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness that looks so good! I love the colors and the molding. When my dad was here working with me a couple of weeks ago we were going to do the molding in my dining room. We..I decided I didn't really need it. Now I'm really sorry I didn't take him up on it!!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty & I'm loving the blue paint.
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is WOW!!!! Do you rent out your son?? Your place looks beautiful! Can't wait to see the curtains!
ReplyDeleteOoooo! That looks beautiful! I love the fresh feel of it. Is that a soft shade of blue? It is hard to tell on my computer. Would you share the name of it, please? I am looking for a very light, soft shade of bllue for our master bedroom.
ReplyDeleteSmiles,
Wendy
Oh wow. It looks wonderful. Your son is doing a fantastic job and what a wonderful thing that you are doing it together.
ReplyDeleteBoth your wainscot and the trim look fabulous. Lucky you to have such a talented son.
ReplyDeleteThis looks absolutely fabulous! How fortunate you are to have a handy son. What a nice guy helping hismom out. I am not a lover of blue but this blue and white looks very attractive! So serene. I love all of your posts and you are such a talented decorator. I know your family must be proud of their home. Full of love and your special touches everywhere.
ReplyDeleteYay! He's got it going! It looks wonderful, Suzie! Can't wait to see the final project! And, I love the beadboard! Very cool!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Susan
I'm thinking of bead board in my guest room... I love how it looks and it looks great in your house! Makes me want to do it now...but I need to stop myself before I completely go insane!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteCan you send your son to Georgia? I promise to feed him!
Sure does look lovely!! Love your cool colors!! Can't wait to see it all done!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day!!
Blessings,
Becky
Wow! It looks so gorgeous! I really like the wall paint color, too. Your son did a wonderful job! :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice handiwork. What a sweet son! Jackie
ReplyDeleteSusie, it all looks wonderful. I have an electric compound miter saw that I got from my husband for my birthday a few years ago. It was what I asked for. We have been replacing builders baseboard with chunkier stuff as well as chair rail. I even used it when we added some more wood floors. Love it! Now I am going to go nuts with molding! Can't wait to see the finished room and curtains. Thanks for the inspiration, Pam
ReplyDeletePS I got a nail gun and compressor for my last birthday, woo hoo.
It looks beautiful - we did the same thing in our dining room about 1 1/2 years ago, and I'm planning on putting it up in our office next. We also put up the beadboard in our girls' room. I love giving our new home some personality.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy, or the two of you have! Your son did a great job. Glad to see those math skills at work. It looks fantastic, and I love the beadboard as well.
ReplyDeleteLooks so awesome! Molding and beadboard add so much character!
ReplyDeleteIt looks fantastic! jen
ReplyDeleteWow, what a difference a little molding makes, huh? It looks fantastic! And what about that great son of yours helping out his momma. . . way to go son!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sher
Oh, it looks soooo beautiful!!! And I can't wait to see your curtains. :)
ReplyDeleteWow...that looks amazing! I need... must have one of those miter boxes. BTW, I'm dreaming about redoing our master bedroom, and have been totally stumped about it. When I saw the color on your kitchen walls, I was instantly drawn in and inspired. I think that color will be my starting point. Do you mind sharing the color with me? It is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks ~ Amanda
Susie, it's so beautiful!! I'm sold. :) I've always loved the look of molding, and the beadboard, now I'm itching to get it done. :)
ReplyDeleteawesome, totally awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Gorgeous! Thanks for keeping us posted. And I am all for child labor :) I make mine do their fair share around here!
ReplyDeleteI Love Love Love all of it! I am such a fan of bead-board and wainscotting. Now, you must share the paint color name and brand for that amazing blue color. It is not juvenile, not too bright, it is just right and I so want to use blue in my "new" room. So, Please, Please, Please share.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful. We have beadboard all over this house...but I love the more formal look of the molding as well. May have to find a place to add that. I have also been anxiously waiting for and hoping that you would tell us all how to make the cute wooden chandelier in your sweet daughter's room. ( hint hint ) Have a lovely day!
ReplyDeleteSusie I love this look. It looks great wonderful job. It's spring break maybe I can get my son to help me with this:) I love you wall color.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend
julie
This is beautiful Susie.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to have some beadboard in the condo. But I need a new floor more!! Going to see about that, one of these days.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Love it! I showed my 8 y/o and asked him if he thought he could do that for me!:) I am getting beadboard in my breakfast nook in the kitchen and was going to leave it natural with a sealer, but I love your white, and maybe reconsidering for my room!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
that really looks amazing - I am soo impressed!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so good Susie! Can you send your son over here when your done with him?? I have a ton of projects that he could help me with!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! What a great idea and as always thank you for sharing! Have a wonderful day :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT!!!! Send that cute young man my way! I'm doing my front porch in bead board. What kind of floor do you have in that room?
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing!! I love what you did. And if you didn't mind, I would love the paint color too. Pretty please? :)
ReplyDelete~Michelle
I love the beadboard panel. I would love to do that in my kitchen.
ReplyDeleteRuth
Awesome! You must be so excited! I can't wait until my boys are old enough to put them to work like that. I got my "to do" list, and since the hubby isn't crossing things off it very fast, I'm sure those projects will still be on the list in a few years when the boys are old enough to really get some work out of them. I knew there was a good reason for having a house full of boys! Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteLooks absolutely amazing! Makes such a huge statement, adds a bit of old world charm :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful! I would love to do that in my dining room. I may have to get one of those miter boxes!
ReplyDeleteThat white woodwork looks gorgeous against that shade of blue!
ReplyDeleteWowee~ looks great hun!
ReplyDeleteJob well done indeed!
Happy rest of the weekend to you~ Les
This looks great. I love the color and the beadboard. We are starting a kitchen re-do this morning. I can't wait.....

Love it! I just showed my husband your lovely room. We've been talking about doing the same in our dining room.
ReplyDeleteJo
Hiya Miz Susie,
ReplyDeleteSorry I've not been around for a few days, work commitments and such, you know how it is! *smiles* But I want to say that your sweet Jesse is welcome to come up to NC & bring his miter box too cause it appears my husband isn't going to ever get around to installing chair rail molding in our dining room! Since Jesse is doing such a great job with your picture molding... well... you know what I'm thinking right? *smiles* Give him extra allowance cause he sure deserves it, wonderful job Jesse! Way to go!
It's amazing what you can do with so little! I love how this is turning out! Thanks for sharing! I can't wait until my own Son is old enough for that child labor part...until then I guess it's just me! =)

Love, love the panels! Wow.
ReplyDeleteWanted you to know I nominated you for an award on my blog!
http://www.musesofmegret.com/2009/03/23/lemons-to-lemonade/
Congrats!
I clicked to ask you the color in your entry and found many others have, too! I have been looking for the perfect blue for my bathroom, and I think you found it! Would you please share the make and name with us? I just found your site and must go back for more inspiration.... Thank you!
ReplyDeleteLooks great!! I love the beadboard, too. I've been begging my husband for some. The wall color is beautiful, too.
ReplyDeleteOK, girl! I'm adding your button, so please add mine!
ReplyDeleteOh! That is really pretty! You did a really nice job in both rooms.
ReplyDeleteNew here and over from the shabby nest. I'll be back!
I just found your blog while surfing...so tell me, with your 'window boxes' do you have smooth walls, or do you have texture on your walls? Wondering how it would look without actually using paneling on my textured walls...
ReplyDeleteI love it!!! We are planning on doing this to our home tonight actually...I'm so excited :)
ReplyDeleteFirst and foremost, let’s get one thing straight: Herve Leger Dresses“There’s an incorrect assumption about Herve that it’s only for evening,”Herve Leger sale Lubov told me up on the 18th floor of her Oktoberfest Costumes Times Square showroom and headquarters. “It can be worn anytime! People also assume that it should fit really tight, but personally I wear it one size bigger because I like the comfort of it while still getting the silhouette.”Herve Leger Replica These are the dresses that are coming into our stores and online now, and these are the dresses that are going to show up come Saturday, because as we pointed out in our runway report last season, an Herve Leger show is full of Herve Leger dresses.
ReplyDeleteYou have a great blog here! would you like to make some invite posts on my blog?
