It really changes the whole look of the front of the house. I love it!! And the best thing is it was pretty inexpensive to do! It was less than $100!

Board & Batten
Last summer I decided I wanted to change up our front entryway. After seeing online a technique called "board & batten" I knew we could do it with our amateur wood skills. We did all our measurements and I went to Home Depot and bought all the wood and had them cut it for me. Easy peesy!
The most tedious part was caulking. I would put it on and then use my finger to make sure it filled every crack. By the time I was done, all my fingers were bloody from being rubbed raw! Ouch! But I loved the way it all turned out!
