Product Information

Now, wet your finger with a baby wipe and lightly run your index finger over that caulked seam. You should be wiping off any excess and leaving the seam line filled in with caulk. Touch up with baby wipes if need and immediately throw them in the trash can. (Don’t make the mistake of throwing the baby wipe on the floor bc then you will have dried caulk all over your floor and it’s nearly impossible to get off – ask me how I know!) You can clad the walls of any room in the house–from the living room to the bedroom, hallway, dining room, bathroom, and beyond—to add some architectural detail and make your space feel a little more finished and inviting. Once you reach the end of the wall, measure the width from the edge of the last beadboard panel to the wall corner. We are painting our floor molding a different color (white), so we held off on installing our molding until after the beadboard and crown molding was painted! 8. Prep for paint

Adding beadboard paintable wallpaper to bookcases or furniture is a fabulous way to give them a low-cost upgrade for a high-end look! I have done this with several laminate pieces and no one can tell it’s not a solid wood piece as the wallpaper gives it lots of character! When painting woodwork, a semi-gloss or gloss finish is often best, since they’re durable and easier to clean — a crucial factor given beadboard’s surface area and grooves. A brush is typically used to ensure paint gets into the grooves, but you can also go with a sprayer for a smoother finish. Beadboard Ceilings The beadboard grooves should be cut in first with a paint brush. This is a bit tedious but worth it for a nice paint job! The first thing to do is measure the wall or walls that you are going to be adding the beadboard too. Determine how many panels or planks of beadboard you will need.For added character in your kitchen, add beadboard wallpaper to the faces of cabinet doors and your cabinet end caps. This is a way to use wallpaper that would be very difficult with traditional beadboard panels because the drawers would have been completely deconstructed. After doing this a couple of times, buy several double rolls instead of single rolls to ensure you have plenty on hand. You can return any extras if you buy too much but you don’t want to get halfway through the process and realize you don’t have enough. How do you remove beadboard wallpaper? However, if you want a very clean, professional look, it’s best to remove the crown molding (if you have any) and floor molding.

IMPORTANT! I recommend cutting your wallpaper with sharp scissors like these. The first time I used beadboard wallpaper, I used a utility knife which is fine. However, if you don’t press down hard enough every time you make a cut, the vinyl can tear. So, that’s why I use scissors now. If your lines are not completely straight – no worries! You will cover this up with caulk anyway later on. Step 2: How to Install Beadboard Wallpaper with Wallpaper Paste Paint the beadboard! We used Cornwall Slate by Sherwin Williams. It’s a beautiful, gray, green paint color. For a basic installation, you’ll need beadboard panels, adhesive, finish nails, a level, a hammer or nail gun, and a saw for cutting the panels to fit your space. Here’s how to proceed: Beadboard wallpaper is easy to remove because it is vinyl. For that reason, it is less likely to tear off in small pieces like regular paper wallpaper and is more likely to come off in long sheets. Is beadboard wallpaper durable?

However, if you want a very clean, professional look, it’s best to remove the baseboard and install the beadboard behind it. In many cases, it looks better than the actual beadboard because it doesn’t show seams in the same way the panels do – especially where you might have uneven drywall. Also, it is very easy to apply and cut with scissors! Beadboard Panels vs. Beadboard Wallpaper: Cost Comparison You want to chalk the seams, wherever they meet trim and the corners. This will give you an added touch that provides a seamless and finished look.If you don’t have a caulk gun, buy the caulk in the tube. In either case, cut a very small angled hole in the tip with a utility knife. You want a small bead and you can always cut off more later. We used crown molding for our top trim piece and cut it to size with our miter saw. It was an easy step since no special angled cuts were needed! Then, we installed it with our nail gun. Beadboard installation shares some steps with other wall coverings, but it has some unique aspects.

Obviously we could see our wall studs because we just built our wall and didn’t have any drywall up! 3. Cut the beadboard height to size if needed

As you go, make any special or custom cuts for wall outlets, light switches, or other wall features.

We used 1 1/4″ brad nails and a brad nailer. You can see the install in action in our DIY beadboard video! Make special cuts as needed for wall outlets and features

Does beadboard wallpaper hold up to kids? I wouldn’t recommend it in an extremely high traffic area – like a kid’s playroom but would feel confident putting it anywhere else! Does beadboard wallpaper look real? Our wall was about 9 feet so we needed three 4ft x 8ft panels. 2. Prepare the wall for the beadboard and remove molding as needed
