I am surprised how many negative comments on this video... These people just wanted to show other people on the youtube how they did certain things.. You can like it, you can dislike it, you can skip it... Why so much hate? What's going on with the world?
I agree, she doesn't deserve the hate. It's a DIY, it's not meant to be professional. She's happy with what she did, she's proud, and if she changes her mind in a few years she'll be able to make something new easily.
Thank you so much! That means a lot. Like you said, I wanted to help ppl if they want to do it in their home. You’re a shining star!
Thank you Laurence! I def never implied I was a professional. And that’s the exact reason we didn’t use glue! Thanks for understanding
Keep on Hana, you are very talented 👏👏
Looks awesome, keep up the good work.
Congrats guys you did a great job!
The idea is great. The construction is normally different. You would first apply a sheet of MDF or a board. Affix the board to the studs, sand and paint, then apply the slats. That way you can use glue and nails w/o damage to the wall and it will be a more permanent/secure application. A primer is crucial when painting with darker colors. Otherwise, Im super proud of the effort. 👏
That’s a great idea too!! Thanks for the tip
So you’re saying to like put a cross board screwed into the studs running horizontally and then attach the planks to that?
Great tips.. thanks for sharing!
As an interior Designer i found it very beautiful and emazing work
Thank you! Getting ready to do mine

Hi, loving some of your begginer advice as I'm going to start sharing all my cool stuff soon. My stuff that I think is cool anyway. Since I grabbed a little handful of your tips, thought it only fair to leave one for your propagation. This may very well be rife input, but it is a pretty simple technique for holding lighter-weight, non-structural materials to sheetrock like slats for instance. Works best with longer 16‐18gauge nails ( I always keep 2" loaded up). Shoot one at 11 o'clock and as close to the head of your 11 nail as possible, fire another at 1 o'clock. Kind of shooting a v away from yourself creating a pretty stable anchor. Obviously lots of people would say glue or caulk, but trying to blow and go on something this tedious saves lots of nails and is much much less permanent. Meaning if you need to make it be not, the pinholes to be filled are much less work than removing the glue and sheetrock/texture the glue takes with it.(usually requiring new rock all together) I do apologize, I have a strange condition where when I have simple thought i expel a massively prolix and windy, but gratuitous, thicket of a grapheme and phoneme amalgamate. See lol. I talk too much would be more concise
Amazing 👏
Très bon travail. Bravo.
Gran trabajo!
Good work
Put a planter and a hanging light over it in that corner as well 😍😍. Very Niceee ❤
Awesome 😎💯 work indeed in fact this is kinda high end well 🙂 done ✅
Great idea Hannah forget all the haters looking good 👍🏻
Thanks so much Gary!! Gotta be the bigger person ☺️
Love it!!
Glad you like it!
Fantastic!!!! Did you upload part 2 yet?
Yes!! You can watch it here czcams.com/video/Ibp7xaWrPDk/video.html
Thinking about that second cutout for the outlet I suppose a chisel might be a good tool to carve it out as well.
Perfect🎉🎉
Don't worry about negativity make every situation educational we all learn from mistakes
Nice. I like it with a only few slats in 2 corners cause paint so nice. Shoudve left a little extra spacing around outlet for maintenence. Always maintenence lol.
Oops! Didn’t think of that. Noted for next time
Are you concerned that brad nails won't keep the slats from warping with changes in humidity? Did you consider using a backer board and screwing from behind to provide more ridgity and would be interested to know why or why not? Thank you!
Hi Carl! This has been up for 4 months and there’s no issues yet. Since we did a geometric design in the other side of the wall, we wanted the slats to be as close to the wall as possible. I guess you could do the backer board depending on your environment.
Wondering what you would think about this method but in a partially underground basement? We are thinking of doing a single wall like this but attaching it to MDF/Plywood, then attaching that panel to cinderblock walls. How would we attach the slats to allow them not to warp with humidty?
It’s inside. No humidity issues. That’s what an air conditioner is for.
Lovely video thanks a lot
Just a question
Which type of wood bars did you use, I know that pine wood will deform with the time
Mabye could you help me
Hey! We used poplar wood
Hola que marca es la pistola de clavos qué utilizo? Es muy hermoso el trabajo que realizaron saludos desde chile 🇨🇱
The first slat was installed "plumb" not "level". Plumb is vertical. Level is horizontal. This is a beautiful design.
I’ll remember that. Still learning
So you’ve never misspoken before?? How ridiculous
Hi, what is the name of that yellow machine used for the slat wall installation?
Looking like a hotel
That’s an awesome compliment 🥰
Looks great! How well do the brad nails hold in the drywall without hitting a stud?
Hi Taylor. Good question. We nailed them in an angle so they criss cross (like an x formation) so they are holding well. This helps to anchor nails when there is no stud. Also, No one is pulling them so I don’t anticipate any problems!
What size slats? Maybe I missed to sizing.
It turned out amazing. Good job.
I want to do this on a bathroom ceiling.
They are 1x2 cut to the length we needed
@@Hanasdiyhome thank u
What is the color of the paint? Beautiful job❤
Did you have to do any repair to the bottom of the (wood slate side) wall after removing the baseboard?
That depends on your builder hahaha. If they did a good job, then no. But you may have to add some wood filler to clean it and patch it up if it’s unsightly
Hey tell me pls what was colour code by ral?
They make adhesives you can caulk on the back of the wood for extra security on the wall
We didn’t want to use glue in case we change our mind a few years ago. It would be hard to repair the drywall damage
Wooden houses in America saying hello to hurricanes haha
you fired a brad nail into the wall around the socket... without checking the orientation of the cables? how were you sure you didnt or were not going to penetrate the cables???
I don’t think we nailed right around the outlet just in case.
What’s the divider piece you’re using to keep them divided while nailing
Hey Devionne! It’s actually the same piece of wood, but we flipped it on the short edge. You can use anything but we liked a smaller gap than the width of the board.
Çok muhteşem olmuş çok başarılı
Hello Hana, what are the studs sizes and where did you bought them ?
They are 1x2 poplar
Did you not risk hitting any wiring with the nail gun near the wall sockets?
We aren’t using very long nails and tried to nail at the top and bottom where there is less chance of any wires. You can also get a stud finder that detects electrical too if your concerned about it!
do you have a color code for the paint you used on the wall?
It’s by Sherwin Williams. It’s called cyber space
Great video only one thing... i would have got new outlet box's fitted so that the face could have been fitted on top of the wood to give it a better finish
Same thought. They sell extenders that would have brought that box back to where they needed it
Этот гвоздезабивной пистолет стоит, как весь ремонт в моей квартире))
What’s the color spec of that paint
Can you tell me the wall paint color and paint brand? It's stunning!
It’s cyberspace by SW
hello a question is your wall in wood? my wall is in concrete the nail gun is not good? thanks
No you will need to use a hammer drill, concrete screws and a masonry drill bit. Tbh it’s really hard to drill into concrete for this many slat
What's the end song?
What kind of wood did you use? How far the distance between the slats ??
It’s 1x2 poplar. We used the same board as a spacer but flipped on its side
Sory .. what machine you used to joint a wood and wall ?
It’s a nail gun. It’s linked in the description box.
Did you use wood that was already cut, for the slat wall? I am doing this under my house instead of lattice. I am trying to figure out what would to use.
They were already cut into 1x2 strips. Then we had the hardware store cut then to the height of the wall to make it easier for us.
I would have glued the slates. Brad nails will never stay in place long term on a plastered wall when your not hitting the studs. Other than that it looks great . Good job
The issue with glue is removing them. If you get tired of the design, you’ll have to do a lot of drywall repair. With brad nails it’s just a couple holes to patch if you remove them
@@Hanasdiyhome that's why they make proper slat wall channels and concealed covers, you don't see anything and screws are used as fixings
You can connect the vacuum directly to the saw by the way ;-)
You’re right!! Miss in our part
Ηi
could you write me here in the comments what is the name of this yellow machine that you nailed to the wall?
Thanks
It’s a brad nailer
Mau tanya ka itu vinylnya habis brpa.?
Hi how do you use the nail gun apart from pressing on it
You press it against the wall and then pull the trigger! You can practice on scrap wood before you try it on the wall
Where did you purchase the slats?
Any hardware store should have them. They are 1x2 poplar wood
What color walls?
what's model RIOBY used ?
Hey! All the tools are linked in the description box!
What kind of wood and what is the slates dimensions. Great Video 😊
This is 1x2 poplar!
Thank you 😊
Where did you buy the wood?
This is from Tamarak hardware store
What size slats are those and where do I buy them
They are 1x2. If you have 8ft ceilings or less then just get them at a regular hardware store like Home Depot or Lowe’s. These are 9ft and so we got them from a specialty store in our area. This is poplar wood.
I loved what y’all did. I’m going yo try it. Thanks ❤️
👍👍
What was the wood you used as slat. Can you let me know.
Yes. We used poplar. But you can also pine which is a bit cheaper
@@Hanasdiyhome Did you rip the boards to desired width? Or are they 1x2x8? I want to do this and you have inspired me 😊
👏👏👏
Thanks so much!!
Hi, what sealant did you use please?
Polyurethane
Level is horizontal….plumb is vertical.
Thanks for tip! Didn’t know that
And beans are on toast.
What is the height floor to slab?
The ceiling is 9ft, so we had to get the boards at a specialty lumber shop
i love it! where is the second part?
Can you please help me with the color 🎨 code? 😊
Great ideas. But was painful to watch. Do you think the drywall will hold the slats forever?
It’s been a year and there’s been no issues at all. So yes. I do
😂 why painful to watch? It was fun to watch
@@sandiapillay9691 drilling nails into drywall will be ok for a very short time or as long as the slats are it disturbed I guess. They are not secured properly in the video I think.
But OP said they have been fine for over an year so 🤷♂️
Good job, is that a concrete, brick or gypsum wall that you installed the slats on?
Thank you. This is a standard home in Toronto area. It has wood framing and drywall on top.
@@Hanasdiyhome you are beautiful
Weldone
Thank you!! We love it
Those pieces of wood, at 2400mm long, cost around £4 each. It’d be cheaper to get the ready made slats on felt
Hi where did you buy the slat woods ?
Hi we are in the GTA so they are form Tamarak
I'm gonna try it for sure,what kind of wood u using ?
This is 1x2 poplar which is a bit nicer than pine but you can use pine too!!
Looks good.
And the actual retail price is…..?
Welcome to Canada 12$ per slat
Haha yea. And this is poplar so it was more 🤪
What is this couler code
It’s cyberspace by SW
Name of the machine please
Hi! The tools are linked in the description box.
Gg I am doing the same in my house! 😊👍
Yes!! I’m so excited for you!!
Don't you glue the slat to the wall, I see you are just nailing them ?
Did your friends get sick at the end?
Nope!!
Don't you need glue? That stuff is going to walk all over the house as it goes thru the seasons.
please tell us slat dimension
1x2 slats cut to the height of the wall
@@Hanasdiyhome This looks fantastic! Where did you get the slats? Is this just simple wood lumber from a big box store?
@@TheKurfer Hi Chris. These are poplar. You might be able to get them from a hardware store but typically you will find pine in the same dimensions at Home Depot or Lowe’s. Poplar is a bit more expensive but the wood grain is really much more beautiful and it can be found at a more specialty hardware store.
Nice to have 3000 nails in the wall… perfect for the next project in 5 years 😅
It’s an easy fix. And why not enjoy your home?
outlets should have been sat on top of the slats for clean look
They could have been but this is easier and looks great
Prolly should have back caulked or liquid nailed them.
We didn’t want to have to tear down drywall if they get sick and tired of it.
@@Hanasdiyhome your gonna mess up the drywall regardless. But ya less fixes. Just thought it was attached a bit light for the amount of work put into.but ya your not wrong.
Do have I to get a high school diploma to be a interior designer??
Nope! I’m not. Build your portfolio
