This is the Wood wall we did in our family room. It is actually made of raw maple flooring. We got a whole bundle on ksl for $85. we still has some left over as well. So the total cost for the wall was $85. The total project took us about 3 1/2 hours to get it all up. They just fit together like flooring that is the tongue and groove then we nailed it right to the wall. We fist took off the base boards then found all the stud across the whole wall. We then Drew a pencil line from floor to ceiling to show us where the stud were the whole way. So that was we were able to get the nails into the studs for the most part. We were going to stain it after it was up but ended up loving it just just the raw wood.
