Small bathroom budget makeover - DIY board and batten

[@suburbohemian]

I'm 62 and a total newbie at DIY, but I have fond memories of helping my dad and my bff's dad back in my youth. Your room looks soo nice and this is very encouraging for me.

Love the cloakroom it looks great. I’m so envious of your DIY skills if ever I try to even just paint something I get the paint everywhere including up my arms to my elbows. So I leave it all to my husband. Perhaps that’s my cunning plan 😂

[@LivinganOrganisedLife]

Sounds like a great idea 😂

Hi Deborah, Great job. It has inspired me to start my bathroom renovation. We are having problems with damp in the walls and a plumber is required before we can make a start, Lovely to have you back but be mindful to pace yourself. Take care Barbara from Perth

[@matijamosunic7853]

Wow! Love the two different colors. It looks like a new room! 😍How did you learn to use power tools? I'd forge ahead but am afraid of hurting myself.

[@LivinganOrganisedLife]

Thank you so much!! I love having a go with power tools and I watch lots of KZbin videos to find out what to do. I say go for it!! 😊

I also have a very small bathroom that needs a make over. I love the board and batton and it looks so easy. What type of tool did you use to cut them to size? Also, what kind of table or other tools did you use in your workshop?

[@LivinganOrganisedLife]

I used a jigsaw and a saw guide to cut the battens but you can just buy stripwood in the DIY store. I used my mitre saw for some cuts and a regular table I’ve got in the workshop. Good luck if you try this project, it was easy and enjoyable!
