Sunday Letter #13: The Easiest Way to Upgrade Your Walls


June 8, 2025


Hey friends,

Question... Have you ever looked around your space and thought… it just needs something?

Because same.

A lot of you have asked for easy ways to upgrade plain walls without breaking the bank, and one of my favorite tricks is Board and batten 🙌

It’s simple, classic, and adds so much charm with just a little effort. Whether you’re working on an entryway, a bedroom, or even just a small nook, board and batten instantly adds texture and character (and trust me, it’s more beginner-friendly than it looks).

I put together a blog post rounding up all my favorite board and batten wall ideas, plus some tips if you’re thinking of giving it a go yourself!

Oh, and P.S.—I just added shoppable plans for the double raised paneling in my dining room. It includes everything from tools and materials to measurements and step-by-step instructions.


If you haven’t checked it out yet, you can find it here.

Should I make a version for board and batten too? With shoppable plans and a calculator? Hit reply and let me know! I’d love your input 💛

Until next time,
Fariha
