REMODELING YOUR HOME CAN BE
A DAUNTING CHALLENGE SO TACKLING
ONE ROOM AT A TIME COULD BE THE
WAY TO GO.
WE TEAMED UP FOR A DO IT
YOURSELF PROJECT FOR ANOTHER
EDITION OF HAWAI'I AT HOME.
LESSEE IS JOINING US AGAIN
AND THIS IS SO GOOD BECAUSE
YOU'VE BEEN SUPER BUSY.
I LOVE YOUR BACKGROUND, THE
HOUSE.
I'M SURE EVERYBODY WHO WATCHES
IT IS LIKE SHE'S GOT SUCH A
WHERE DO YOU GET YOUR
INSPIRATION FOR YOUR HOME
PROJECTS.
I GET INSPIRATION FROM THE
ESTATE INVESTORS BECAUSE THEY
TEND TO BE BRAND NEW BECAUSE
THEY HAVE THESE NEW DESIGNS AND
THINGS THEY INCORPORATE THAT
THEY FIND ON THE MAINLAND.
I LEARN A LOT FROM THE INSTAGRAM
DESIGNERS TOO.
OLD FASHIONED MAGAZINES.
SOMETIMES I'LL GET INSPIRATION
FROM PLACES I'D LIKE TO GO.
THE FAUX SHIP LAP.
I'D LOVE TO KNOW WHAT IT IS.
CHIP AND JOANNA GAINS MADE IT
POPULAR IN THEIR HEALTH GTV
SHOW.
WHAT IT IS IS WOOD BOARDS ON
WALLS.
OLDER BOARDS USED TO HAVE THEM
TOO, THE TONGUE AND BOARD
PWRAOFZ THAT ARE STILL IN OLDER
HOMES TOO.
CAN DO IT WITHOUT A HUGE
INVESTMENT, THEN I WAS GOING TO
TRY IT.
TELL ME WHAT MATERIALS THEN
WE NEED FOR A PROJECT LIKE THIS?
YEAH, SO I ACTUALLY LEARNED
HOW TO MAKE IT FROM JUST
AND THERE'S SO MANY DIFFERENT
MATERIALS THAT YOU COULD USE.
YOU CAN ACTUALLY BUY THE BOARDS
ALREADY MADE BUT WHAT I DID WAS
I TOOK PLYWOOD AND I CUT THEM
WITH A USA AND I USED A TABLE
SAW AS WELL AS A CIRCULAR USA.
OF COURSE YOU'RE GOING TO USE A
TAPE MEASURE TO MEASURE OUT HOW
LONG YOUR FLOORS WILL.
I USED A NAIL GUN TO HAMMER THEM
PAINTED THE WALLS AND I SPACKLED
THE HOLES WHERE I WAS PUTTING
THE NAILS IN AND THEN THAT'S
BASICALLY IT.
YOU ALSO DO WANT TO HAVE A
SPACER TO MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR
BOARDS ARE EQUALLY FACED FROM
EACH OTHER.
LET ME JUST RECAP.
WE'RE LOOKING AT A USA, PLAY
WOOD, SOME NAILS, A HAMMER OR I
ANAIL GUN IF YOU'VE GOT ONE,
PAINT ROLLERS, A BRUSH FIRE OR A
SPRAY GUN IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT
EASY, WOOD FILLER, SPACES LIKE
LARGE POPSICLE STICKS.
AND THEN --
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I USED.
OTHER PEOPLE HAVE USED NICKELS
OR SOMETHING REALLY SMALL,
SOMETHING THAT'S LIKE A 16 TO AN
EIGHTH OF AN INCH BUT THE LARGE
POB SICKLE STICKS WORK REALLY
WELL BECAUSE THEY STUCK RIGHT IN
THE WALL ALONG MY BOARDS SO IT
WAS PERFECT.
WALK US THROUGH THE STEPS OF
MAKING A SHIP LAB.
SO FIRST YOU WANT TO DECIDE
HOW WIDE YOU WANT EACH BOARD TO
BE.
AND IF YOU WANT TO HANG THEM
HORIZONTALLY OR VERTICALLY.
YOU'RE GOING TO MEASURE OUT YOUR
WALL.
YOU WANT TO CUT THE BOARDS TO
WIDTH AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE
THOSE TOOLS AT HOME, HOME DEPOT
OR LOWE'S WILL CUT THEM THERE
FOR YOU AT THE STORE.
THEN YOU'D WANT TO PAINT ALL THE
BOARDS.
IT'S EASIER TO PAINT THE BOARDS
I FEEL BEFORE YOU ATTACHED THEM
TO THE WALLS AND THEN YOU'LL
INSTALL THEM WITH NAILS
PREFERABLY INTO STUDENTS.
AFTER THAT YOU FILL THE NAIL
HOLES WITH WOOD FALLER AND APPLY
CAULK TO THE WALLS.
WHATEVER METHOD YOU USE, YOU
JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE
FINISHING NAILS GO INTO THE
SURFACE OF THE WOOD JUST BELOW
SO WHEN THE NAILS ARE -- THE
HOLES ARE FILLED, THE SURFACE
TO CUT THE WOOD, THE BEST TYPE
OF SAW TO USE I THINK IS A TABLE
SAW SO IT'S STRAIGHT AND
UNIFORM.
I'M GLAD YOU AT LEAST HAD THE
WOOD FILLER.
THERE'S A SPECIAL TIP FROM JOHN
