That is great work! I have been looking for a technique like that for siding on a facade. Thanks

Ohhh, now you are making me jealous. That is an awesome job getting the look of old boards. Any way you could post additional, big photos, I would love to see more detail. You should also consider posting this to HauntProject.com under the Painting category!

Those look great. And I love how they would be so lightweight for eaiser moving. That's really important too.

You did a great job showing the steps. I would like to see more pictures of the different 'boards' you created to see the different ways you applied the technique. If you could please:D

Yes, great job. I was just thinking about making shelves myself, what a great way to make them look wooden, without the weight. THANKS
