To add a rich, warm appeal to a room, consider installing wood raised paneling as a wainscoting on the walls. You’ll see it in a library of an upscale home, and often surrounding the walls of a restaurant, to add character and enhance a room’s appeal. And designers often use wood wainscoting to transform an ordinary room to extraordinary. You can create that same look in any room, but it’s a pricey, not a low budget improvement. Consider installing wood wainscoting as a long-term investment you’ll enjoy for years to come.
The project involves surrounding the bare walls of a room in wood. The steps include measuring and laying out the panels, installing horizontal base rails, followed by the vertical panels, and then finishing with top rails. The material is fastened to the walls with adhesive and nails.
