Hi all,
I love the look of this Bathroom with the wainscotting and have a very tiny poweroom that I think this would look great in. Can anyone tell me the best way to install it. Also, do you buy it in pre-fab sheets or does each strip get nailed individually? What height would be best? Also, what size do you think the trim is in this pic?
Thanks!

I just wanted to say that you have to post your question in the "Mad Renovator" forum for Friday because she is the H and H editor that will be answering questions so you can ask her exactly how she did it! Perfect time for you to have had this question!! [/B]
Okay...Will do! Thanks for the heads up...

i'm assuming your fossils are small, otherwise you wouldn't consider leaning them on the ledge. if my assumption is right (for once!), have you considered putting them in a shadow box frame and hanging them? i like the idea of putting collectibles in a galleryesque format. you could even hang them above the bead board.
for our bathroom as well. I love the look and it would create some interest on one long, boring wall we have. I keep looking at photos to see if people put a wide ledge on the top so they can prop pictures up or add decorative items along it. All the photos I've found so far they did not use the ledge so I was glad to see that the ledge was used in this bathroom. My dh collects fossils and I wanted to use if for a display place for fossils. Do you think this would work or would they be at risk for falling off or look cluttered? Another option would be to put narrow shelves up on the wall above the beadboard for the fossils.
Hi,
We recently did my son's nursery using the same particlebaord wainscotting.
See pic :

It is available at Home Depot in full and wainscott length (3x4 sheets). With a molding and baseboard it comes to about 36" in height.
It's about $16 a sheet and pretty easy to install with a power nail gun or special adhesive glue.As long as your walls are straight you're in business!
You need to paint as it's unfunished.
I hope this helps and good luck!

Hi! Home Depot now has the tongue & grove packages of MDF wainscotting. All precut, in a standard height. I liked it when I seen it because it makes a clean look, no knots like pine...
Thanks for sharing the picture.
