Anyway, he didn't have the tools to make shiplap himself, so he ripped had The big box store rip a sheet or two of plywood into 6 inch strips and just nailed that to the wall, spaced slightly apart. I'm 95% sure that entire house is a Pinterest post. I can't wait until the day we can colateralize a loan with a pinterest post and then take hundreds of those loans and turn them into a CDO.

GreenNight posted:Open shelving in kitchens seems like a bad idea. Like your dishes dusty? Open shelving is an awful idea. I don't want to put everything on display, and then cooking grease and dust and everything gets all over your dishes... I don't understand why you wouldn't just use cabinets with glass doors if you wanted to lighten the space up.

Clarence posted:Wait a minute - the shiplap is on the inside of the house? Yeah, I can't really see the draw either. It just screams "THIS USED TO BE AN OUTSIDE WALL BUT THEN WE PUT THIS ROOM HERE AND WERE TOO LAZY TO REFINISH THE WALL APPROPRIATELY" even if that's not at all the case. That is to say, it gives me the impression of a half-assed addition.

I think the idea is that in that particular part of Texas it was a cheap and available material and was used for interior walls rather than lath and plaster or whatever else you would have used. Now because of that show, people are putting it in homes where you never would have seen it. The sheathing of most of my house is ship lap, but there is a layer of underlayment and then cedar shingles on top of that. Personally I don't think ship lap looks very nice, even when painted.

If you love crappy construction you'll probably like the Interior Design thread too. There are some things there worth cross posting. Like this house:The Sexual Shiite posted:Here's a house for sale that's pretty special. like someone saw a year's worth of Country Living and said "yes, I want that!" It used to be a perfectly conventional, functional suburban house. Then they turned it into a Country Living nightmare.

Personally I like the look of open cabinets, but it's mostly just a reason to force my wife to donate/throw away stuff we don't use. For instance, we don't need 30 mugs yet because they're hidden behind a wooden door she thinks it's perfectly reasonable to just keep filling it up.

It's a good thing I have a spare PURE BUTTER by my feet, because the PURE BUTTER on the top shelf with all the plates stacked on it is too hard to take out past my wooden water buffalo head decoration.
