Only interrupted by a steel entry door :) and I have gone thru every idea! But I think I have finally settled on the exterior kinda v-groove to do my thermal break on those 3 "real"outside walls. Ducted for heat & AC only does so much,so his summer the lath goes up with PL2000 then "pink" vinylwrapped (am allergic) in 1", urethane the heck out the panels with a sprayr outside&finally fit. Oops, running extra junction boxes & conduit for future in/out wiring while at it. Tim do you "think pink" or shud I go really ez and just use that styro stuff? I thought pink be better R value cuz ont be redone in my lifetime. Only new windows someday (8 skinnies). Help.

We're currently working on some shiplap in our kitchen, and I'm so inspired to put a mirrored window in our tiny bathroom! These are some beautiful ideas!

We're remodeling and adding onto our lake camphouse out of necessity. It was damaged in a storm so we figured 'might as well'. We added an upstairs with open faux rafters. This means a 20' wall that I've got to cover. I want to make it look like it used to be an exterior wall. The problem is the cost. We've discussed using 1/4" plywood with lathe strips but I'm afraid that with the wall being so big it will only accentuate it. I would love to do a faux lap siding out of 1/4" plywood and for that matter any plywood scraps we have laying around. Then maybe faux aging them, then clear finish it to make it easier to clean. My husband thinks I'm crazy. Have you ever heard of anyone doing this? This is exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for. We’re remodeling and adding onto our lake camphouse out of necessity.
