We recommend laying out your design on a clean, flat surface before applying to your wall to minimize cuts and emphasize a random seam placement. Use inconsistent sized planks as small filler pieces in a hidden area on your application surface. Color variation adds to the depth and beauty of your item.
Select a full plank, and fully peel off the backer of one line of adhesive. Partially peel off the backer of the second line of adhesive, being careful to leave about a quarter of the backer intact. Allow the tail to hang out below the plank.
When the board is in place and level, carefully flatten the plank to the wall to adhere. Pull off the adhesive backer tail at an angle to fully adhere the plank to the wall.
If your row is level, continue with each row until your project is complete. If your row is slightly unlevel, correct for this when placing the adjacent rows.

Keep going until your project is complete. For a polished look, we recommend using square edge trim. You can create trim by cutting planks to the desired width to apply at surface edges. If desired, ready-made trim can be purchased from your local lumber store and stained in an appropriate color.
Exposed cut lines or edges can also be finished by applying a watered-down stain or paint, in an appropriate color, with a rag. This can be the same paint you used for the back wall. Be sure to test this on a sample piece first!
Congratulations on completing your project! Now, pat yourself on the back for a job well done and enjoy your beautiful new wall.
