Have you ever seen a Pinterest fail up close and personal? There are so many Pinterest fails in the new house. New house!! How cool is that?
Let me back up. Shae and I sold our house in Richardson and are moving into a cute little 1940s wood frame house. We call it our farmhouse. And we are so excited to start this adventure. A little scared and anxious, but excited to make this place our home--and make it EXACTLY that way we want.
We got the keys last night and started working. And let me tell you about the master bedroom. Lots and lots of screws. Pinterest fail.
So the ENTIRE master bedroom is covered in white-washed cedar pickets that have been nailed and screwed into the wall. Each picket has 3 to 4 screws and multiple nails. Every single picket has been done this way.
The entire room looks this way for now. But slowly that'll change. Behind the reclaimed wood was paneling and behind the paneling was drywall. But good news was behind the drywall.
Y'all look close!
SHIPLAP! We are pretty certain that behind all the drywall in this cute little house of ours is shiplap. And we are so stoked by this! So my job while at the house the next few days is to finish pulling apart all the layers on these walls and expose the shiplap. And the adventure begins...
I think it's so cool that you guys enjoy making the old new again, and that you love doing it together. Good luck! I can't wait to see the transformation of your new home.
