wainscoting - if you did this yourself

be honest, how hard was it?

i would love to do this in my DC's room but i don't want to make a lot of extra work for my DH. he is getting new base molding for the entire house so that's something that needs to be done anyway. the wainscoting would just be something extra.

not at all. it was the first project my dh did when we first bought our old house. he did it really well too. not hard.
i say a 3 out of 10 on the level of difficulty (10 being the hardest)

DH just did this in our nursery. This was the first project DH did without any help. It wasn't the easiest project in the world but it wasn't THAT difficult either!!!

As long as he's got the right tools and can measure/cut etc. it's not hard.

WE did this in our old house, it was easy. IF you want it white just go to Home Depot and get the prefab panels easy so easy to do!

we did it in our DS's nursery. I don't know if it's hard or not, my DH is a former contractor, so he did it himself...didn't "look" hard to do, but then again, I didn't help!!! lol
