I Turned Old Barn Wood Into a Garage Accent Wall

What happens here

After the main wall is covered, the creator frames the window. He first installs barnwood pieces on the inside perimeter of the window. Then, he uses contrasting gray barnwood planks to frame the outside of the window, emphasizing his preference for their aesthetic appeal. He notes that he will apply caulk to the seams around the window frame. He then steps back to display the fully barnwood-covered wall, expressing satisfaction with the results and discussing future plans to build a bar and shelves along the wall, completing the garage's transformation.

Goal: Complete the barnwood installation by framing the window and finalizing the wall's aesthetic

What they say

Hide

and I'll catch back. All right. So, I got the whole wall done. I cut the strip on top. It actually turned out pretty well. Um it was 2 and 1/2 like all the way across after I got a little eighth on the bottom, but uh trim this window and then I'll come back. So, I went ahead and I did the inside of my window. Put some casing on there. Now, I'm going to go ahead. I'm going to frame the outside of my window. And I found some gray pieces and I like how the gray looks. So, I'm going to do gray all the way around this window and I'll caulk that side of it. But, uh yeah, I'm going to go ahead. I'm going to finish this window here and then I'll show you the whole thing when I'm done. And there you go. The barn wood wall is done. I I shouldn't really say done yet. I do have to finish up my outlets, get those flushed, and I do have to figure out some way to cover my electrical panel over here. Um but, I went ahead and I just took some gray boards that I had, barn wood, same style, but I had them in gray. Probably it's sun weathered or whatever. And it went really smoothly. Um I think it looks really good. The only next thing I got to do is add a bar to this wall. So, I'm going build a bar right here. We'll hang some signs and some shelves, get some liquor bottles out of here, and it'll be a good time. But anyways, I got more stuff to do. I'll catch you guys later. Peace.
