In reply to Allison Hawks Walters. Thanks so much. I believe the last color we painted in this picture was Chelsea Gray (Ben Moore color).

In reply to Melanie. The latest version of the paint color on the walls is Revere Pewter - a Ben Moore color (one of my favorites).

I love your finished space! I’d really love to know the color of the paint above the board and batten. It’s so light and airy!

In reply to Kelli. I always opt for a satin finish - not too shiny, since that brings to light every flaw!

Hi Jenny, it looks beautiful! What type of paint finish did you use? I’m doing something similar and in the past I’ve used semi-gloss but that was wainscoting below the chair rail and I wonder if semi-gloss would be too shiny so far up the wall. Yours looks great and I’d love to know what you used, thanks!

In reply to Mari. I'm not sure what kind of paint it is, but perhaps you need to use a different mini roller for the board and batten. It varies, depending upon the paint you're using, but when I used Benjamin Moore Advance, I had a lot of success with a mohair mini roller.

My husband is in the process of imstalling board and batten in our halfways and stairway. The paint he brought home is enamel satin. It shows every brushstroke. What paint type and finish do you recommend?

I really like this idea, and was thinking of putting a lip on the top trim so I can rest pictures on it. My head is spinning with ideas now !

Absolutely love this. I have been been planning this in our home but didn’t get the chance. We have now bought another, and this is one of the first projects I want to complete! First in dining room, then in other rooms! We have Stickley furniture…what could be a better fit?i just can’t wat!
