It’s versatile, timeless and quickly became one of my favorite materials to transform spaces and add character in our home. V-groove planks are having a moment lately unlike the most popular wood paneling, tongue and grove. But this type of interlocking wood plank has been used for years and years and you can find it in most homes dated from the 1800 and later.

This is a small-ish bathroom with mostly builder-grade features, including the typical outdated glass door and glued mirror, not-so-great tile floors that, according to Brissette, were so hard to keep clean, and an outdated vanity and light fixtures. Honestly, it wasn't too bad because it was in good shape, but it was mostly outdated, and we knew that with simple and affordable changes, we could make it so much better.

We started working on our home right after we got the keys, but there were and still are spaces that where we can’t make permanent and big changes right away. The kitchen was one of those, we couldn't renovate right away so I decided to do some affordable cosmetic changes to improve the look of our kitchen in the meantime

This project was one of the easiest and made the biggest difference in our upstairs hallway. From cheap looking builder grade hollow core doors to beautiful and expensive looking custom interior doors, all it took was some PVC molding and black paint.

I was craving more character in this area of our home. I wanted an easy and fast project that we could do in one weekend. After some brainstorming, we decided to add chair rail molding on the upstairs hallway and continue the molding going down the stairs.. We would do a complimentary color on the bottom half part and keep the white walls on the top.
