We moved into our house 7 years ago and there were quite a few things that we would have done differently had we built the house and not bought it as is. Thankfully my husband and I love working on DIY projects together so we've been able to change quite a bit and put our own touches into the home. We had a half wall or pony wall that was visible from the front door and separated the front room and family room. The wall not only collected a lot of dust and became a catch all area for clutter, but our kids also loved to use it as a jungle gym. It was on our top ten list of projects and we finally got around to doing it!
We decided to shiplap the wall that faces the front room, completely covering the cutout that opened up into the family room. On the opposite wall we added shiplap and long shelving so it would almost be like a built in bookshelf. We have shiplapped several other areas in our home and used several different approaches so we have a pretty good feel for what works best.
Curtis used 2x4's to frame out the opening of the wall and he cut the 45 degree decorative angles, leaving the edges square. It was amazing how much better it looked right away! The 2x4's were installed flush with the wall so the MDF shiplap boards could go right over the opening on the wall to cover it.
Materials needed:
-1/2 inch MDF Wood - Lowes is our favorite hardware store and they will rip your wood down for free. They supply all of the lumber for JaxnBlvd and we have always had a great experience working with them!
-Nail Gun and Nails
-Router and Router Bit
-Chop Saw or Miter Saw
-Stud Finder
-Level
-Caulk
-Sandpaper
-2x4's if covering a half wall
We like using 1/2 inch MDF, it's not too heavy and not too expensive. We routed all of the edges and sides which allowed us to butt the boards against right up against each other and still give a shiplap look - almost like tongue and groove but much more affordable. Using MDF can be messy, especially when using a router. Sawdust gets everywhere! We usually cut our boards for shiplap to be 7 inches wide but decided to cut the boards for this wall at 11 inches wide to save a little time on this project. We always like to remove the baseboards before starting and we work from the bottom up.
I wanted a clean, seamless look but ultimately decided I didn't want to put in the work to create that look. It would involve a lot of caulking and sanding and that was not something I was interested in. In order to create a pattern that would not look busy but would still look clean , Curtis used he same 3 cuts and rotated placement on the walls. We also cut the ends at a 45 degree angle and this helped the boards fit together really well and look seamless on the edges.
I'm often asked how I'm able to complete so much so quickly. We plan out our projects 100% from start to finish and we gather all the materials we need so we can work, work, work as much as possible without stopping. My husband works really fast and is great about at not stopping until it's done. If I am not tending to the kids then I am working right along side him. For this project, I spent several hours routing the boards for the shiplap so he could work on the rest of the project. We work really well together and pretty quickly with only minimal fighting :)
I can't wait to share the finished product with you, so check back next week for the reveal!

My caution to people out there, if you have no idea of what crypto/BTC is, just avoid it completely. I lost a lot of money in a cryptocurrency scam until I found Flexicapital online. I sent him an email at support@flexicapital.online and he promptly replied. I had put down more than $125,900 with an internet investment company after being tricked. When I went to withdraw my money, they only asked for more money before they would process my withdrawal, which made me quite anxious. I emailed Flexicapital outlining my situation and they responded by accepting to assist. They gave me information and direction nonstop during the recuperation process, which gave me trust in their talents and reassured me. The good news is that he relieved all of my anxiousness during the process; I literally sat and waited for them to finish their job and I received what I lost. I wish every recovery Agent service operated with transparency, integrity and trust such as Flexicapital.

Earlier last year, I got involved with this lady I had met on instagram that posed herself to be a crypto trader and convinced me to invest in her annual program aimed at enabling crypto enthusiasts accumulate steady profits in crypto trading through her company without having to worry about suffering any real losses. At first, I made a few tentative deposits which went well without any form of withdrawal issues before she then advised me to up my investments, she said and I quote ‘’ Once you have a huge capital even the smallest ROl will make you money, and the smallest ROl are most times easier to get and come by, a 3% ROi excluding your initial investment of 100m is 3M and 30m for 1 billion, let’s say you get that weekly spread across a number of months soon you would have made a lot of money easily. Everything had been laid out in a very legitimate way and the possibility of that being a fraud never occurred to me, I ended up depositing a hefty sum in the company. 3 months later, the website shut down and for so many weeks, she told me it was under maintenance which never got fixed till she also blocked me on all socials. This left me perplexed and stranded prompting me to take and immediate action once I realized I had been defrauded. Unfortunately all efforts to get the authorities involved failed to bear any concrete fruits so I decided to try something different and involve the expertise of cybersecurity professionals to help retrieve my funds from the scammers. After a while of investigating, I decided to report my case to J E T H A C K S RECOVERY CENTRE ( J e t h a c k s 7 @ g m a i l . c o m ) following their successful track history of helping scam victims retrieve their funds. The team indeed lived up to their reputation as my funds was safely recovered from the scammers in 48 hours. With that being said, I hope my story can help someone out there get the help they deserve, the team is also active on their official Telegram page: J E T H A C K S S
