“It gives you...math!” 😂😂😂 that made me chuckle. It looks very high end! Tip: if you have a Habitat for Humanity ReStore in your area, hit them up for trim and pegboards even. Inventory is hit or miss since it’s all donations, but keep going by and seeing what they may have in stock! I got my 2x4 pegboards for $3 each and I scored 3 of them. Now I’m going to go look for trim!
Bought my pegboard piece this week. Going to paint it seafoam green minty color, then add white trim to match my Beachy cottage look in my craft studio/sunroom! So excited to finally feel organized.
@@heatherfennell7917 It is a beautiful way to pep up your pegboard! Here is an addendum to my post here 11 months ago! The very week I was painting that pegboard, I came down with a nasty case of Covid, then my husband did so we were both very I’ll at the same time. He ended up in the hospital, but we are all good now. It was a happy gift to feel up to putting up that cheery pegboard after being sick in bed for a couple weeks.
I discovered you this weekend and I am SO GLAD I did. Thank you for these videos. Your peg board inspired me to make my own today. About to hang and organize
I like your video. My husband had a large pegboard and I had him cut it to fit one between the upper and lower cabinet in my small sewing room; didn't need anything large. I repainted it white, didn't need a frame although it looks very nice and he gave me all the hooks, etc he had hoarded away - way too much! I like the simplicity of your board and see which hardware you used - mostly the hooks which is mostly what I need to use too. It will come in handy to hang scissors, etc. on as it is right above the counter I will mostly be cutting on.
I have already bought a large 4' X 4' pegboard and hooks at a yard sale for $2, have leftover white paint, so all I need is to find a good deal on trim pieces and I will be all set! (That trim really looks nice!) Thanks for showing how to do it! I am wondering if the shelves and cups at Dollar Tree will have the same holes. Will have to check it out - I hope so!
I got the white peg board, but I am painting around the edges, an then going to pick up some trim. This is such a great idea thanks for the video, so helpful. I was worried about it looking bad, but now I’m excited to get it done.
love your pegboard, I just got mine we used two 2x4's plus and 12" piece cut from the other 2x4 because they didn't have a bigger pegboard . Giving me 3x 4 board. I painted a 2" boarder using painter's tape. I also like your basket idea. The framing idea is very nice finished look!!
Perfect, I was watching your video for tips on what you wish you knew when you got your cricut. And thought, I love that peg board. Wonder where you got it. Lol
OMG Same! .. I have 2 monitors here and while I was watching her Cricut "wish I knew" video and saw the pegboard, I did a search on my other monitor for pegboard and meh! Her own video (this one) came out first! Nonetheless to say, I just subscribed 😋 LOL
beautiful craft room! Home depot has the same sheets of pegboard, so I had gotten 2 of them in white and painted them the mint color to match my accessories. I am going to buy already white trim. But i am glad to know about the mounting wood pieces to mount the board!! i like the way you did it.
It ended up beautiful! Quick question if it's not a hassle: What type of paint did you use? it covered the pegboard color really well after that third coat!
JoAnns had some baskets that fit on a pegboard before Covid. Might still have them. Also, hardware stores have an accessory that holds about 6 tools. Might want to check that out
You don’t have to find beams in the wall? It’ll be fine just drilling through the wall? I wanted to make a smaller like board, such as yours, for my sons nerf guns.
I came for the same question. We plan to get a pegboard soon for my new craft room but I thought you needed to find the studs to properly secure it to the wall... 🤔 🤷🏼♀️
barkingspider2007 thank you!! And yes the pegboard comes in white but it was double the price at my local hardware store, so I figured since I already had the paint sitting at home I would save myself a few dollars! And I painted the wood that goes behind because it’s still slightly visible with my lighting kit when I film tutorials, totally a personal preference thing though! I’m glad you liked the video!
@@TheFoiledPlan , I just installed the white pegboard in my workshop. The coating is some kind of smudge proof plastic, most paint will not hold up as well. Paid $8.98 for a 2 x 4 foot panel in white at Home depot. The wood can be had in already painted white.1 x 2 x 16 for $14.00. I used regular wood at $4.00 per 8 feet. When attaching the wood frame to the wall a drill bit that recesses the heads of the screws was used. The screws are flush with the surface and do not split the wood. This makes the peg board sit flat on the frame. (worth the effort) I went on the HD website to check the price of materials. If I were doing it again my choice would be metal pegboard. The cool part is because the frame on the wall is very well built. I can swap it out for under $30 bucks. You did a great job on the video. The point of the project was "crafting" and making the end product fancy. My wife is into the kind of project you presented. I avoid helping at all costs unless asked. Thank you for the video. : )
I originally left a comment asking questions but got no reply, so I'll answer yours. We ended up buying the white peg board and I bought white primed wood for the back. I used a stud-finder and 4 inch screws and drilled into the studs to mitigate any splitting of wood. Sure seemed like more work then they did, but I can guarantee if I did a pull-up on my wife's installed peg-board, it's not going anywhere! ;-)
DG unearthed hi there! I’m sorry I didn’t see that you had left a question! I’m glad to hear that you made a peg board! I definitely don’t know all of the tricks or anything, I just learn and share as I go :)
@@TheFoiledPlan, NO worries. I just figured you were busy. The only reason I revisited this is because someone "thumbs up'd" my comment. So I was going to edit my comment but like an idiot I accidentally deleted it! lol To be clear I didn't MAKE the wife's peg board just attached it to the wall. I think that's what you meant. Anyways, I'm definitely no handyman, but I've learned alot on RU-vid thanks to folks like you posting informative videos. Hopefully, I'll do the same some day.
I didn't catch how the top and bottom trim are attached with nail gun..... since the board is very thin. I can do everything except the hanging I'm terrible at not destroying the wall or doing it sturdy ☹️
I wish plastic pegboard would be cheaper. Almost all pegboard has an insane amount of glue and chemicals, and the metal ones almost all have coatings to keep from rusting, so if my birds chew on it, they're toast.
I was notified of your original comment before you edited it stating that a child of five could do this. I just want to take a moment to say that once you say things, you cannot take them back, even once you’ve edited them. It takes zero effort to say nothing at all but instead you chose to say something mean which is the first thing I’ve seen as I woke up this morning and will now carry with me all day. I would never think to come over to your channel which I’m sure you work hard on and say anything but nice things. Just some food for thought because it really does hurt when people say negative things. It’s part of the reason I haven’t been able to make a video in over a month. One mean comment is all it takes to really tear someone down.
@@TheFoiledPlan Editing IS taking back. What else is it for? It is true that a child could not have done the mitering (which is why I removed it)- but then you did not either- you got someone else to do it. That's a Y in DIY for a reason... It was not mean, but factual. You bought the pegboard and fittings. You installed it. What part of my post was mean? As it happens, I caught your channel because I have been thinking of making some pegboard myself, and your title starts DIY pegboard. But I intend making the pegboard. i.e. CNC routing out the holes (although I plan to make them slots, in the style of IKEA) and 3D printing all the fitments. That is DIY. I hoped to get some ideas from your video, but of course the title mislead me. That made me slightly more abrupt than I normally post, but then I was mislead. It was never my intent to offend you, but done in the hope that you (and others) would take care in the titling of videos- there is enough click-bait out there without adding to it. It would be great if you tube allowed classification of videos- we could then separate craft and engineering. Making 'nice comments' may massage the ego, but the best use is to either add value to the content or to flag errors or misunderstandings. We are trying to add to the totality of human knowledge and understanding- or at least I am... Please feel free to visit my channel and criticize away. I learn more from one criticism than ten plaudits. If you 'carry it all day' I am sorry, but it says more about you than me.
Beautiful pegboard and great tips!! Also... FYI this is DIY because you put it together yourself. The title isn’t construct a peg board from scratch. I searched for DIY pegboard also to look for ideas on how to put one together. Get ideas. Inspiration. There’s an audience for everything. If this video isn’t what you need move on and maybe adjust how you search for what you need. 🤦🏻♀️
@@dazzodesigns7621 ALL pegboard has to be 'put together'. That is the whole point of pegboard. You do not have to add the DIY bit- you are not likely to employ someone else to stick your stuff on it! DIY means build from raw materials, otherwise it is self-assembly. I would love to know how to 'adjust the search terms' to eliminate this level of post. The you tube algorithm certainly seems not to be able to...
Amazing! Hey, this is from Family Handyman we are really interested in your video and want to share it across our brands. Please contact us back so we can discuss more. Thank you
Hi! Love the trim on the pegboard. I know you don’t have a gap on the sides because of the 1x2 but I’m guessing there is a gap on he top and bottom? Did you use longer nails for that area to attach to the wall or is it only through the pegboard?
