Particularly if it’s a transition from summer to fall. This exclusively has to do with the fact that I refuse to believe that summer is over and that I’m not even close to ready to accept the dark fall/winter days ahead. Alas, here we are. The weather has prompted me to know that it is in fact fall and the calendar tells me that Thanksgiving is literally just around the corner so it’s time to give in and <a href="https://www.company.decormatters.com/post/how-to-decorate-a-cozy-home-for-fall" target="_blank">swap out the decor for some fall decor</a>. I’m a minimalist when it comes to fall decor and I wanted my changes to be as subtle as possible. That being said, I figured you might also want to know some easy ways to swap things out and make a big impact around the house and possibly learn where to get these items from.

I am there at a minimum once a week, usually more. If you are from the USA, HomeGoods is what I will call the sister company, but there’s probably a better term they use.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Now, let’s get into some easy and impactful ways to swap out your decor for fall.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">First, and I believe this should generally be seasonal, is to swap out your pillow covers or pillows as a whole. I find so many gems at HomeSense but I don’t always love their inserts – as I love the overstuffed look. That being said, I tend to find the pillows (&amp; covers) at HomeSense and replace the inserts with the many, many, many, that I have at home. When I’m swapping out my pillows, I look for darker, moodier colors, along with some more dramatic patterns. I have to also be subtle with my pattern selection, otherwise, McGregor will tell me “that’s a lot” – insert loving eye-roll.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">My next tip is to swap out any decorative vases you have and/or foliage – presumably, they were bright and light for summer. Well, fall is the time to harvest your backyard for some branches, to find a moodier vase, or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.company.decormatters.com/post/easy-diy-fall-wreath-tutorial" target="_blank">DIY your own</a>!

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Finally, blankets. I’m a firm believer that blankets are seasonal. And the more the merrier is welcome in this house – according to me, not my husband. Think warm, cozy, plush, knit, plaid, fall-vibe throw blanket swaps.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">That’s it! You’ve just changed out some decor and fall-i-fied your home. I honestly believe you could do this for under $100 – I know I did thanks to my deal-finding skills!

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">This article was written by <a href="https://www.instagram.com/signedsamanthaxo/" target="_blank">Samantha</a> from <a href="https://signedsamantha.com/" target="_blank">Signed Samantha</a>.

Choosing the perfect home color palette doesn't have to feel overwhelming.

Our expert color guide will simplify the process by showing you how to: select colors that reflect your personality and desired home aesthetic, build a cohesive and flowing color scheme throughout your home, and understand how lighting influences color and why wall color is crucial.

Using the <a href="https://decormatters.app.link/blog">DecorMatters app</a>, you can easily test different color combinations, visualize your space before committing, and create a professional-level interior color palette—all with the tap of a button.

The colors in your home affect your mood, energy, and productivity. According to <a href="https://decormatters.com/blog/enhancing-your-home-s-atmosphere-with-color-psychology">color psychology in interior design</a>, different shades create different emotions:

Blue evokes calmness—great for bedrooms and offices.

Green promotes relaxation—perfect for living rooms.

Warm tones like red and orange boost energy—ideal for kitchens and dining spaces.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Firstly, think: What colors do you usually wear day-to-day? If you like floral prints and bright patterns, bring them into your bedrooms and living rooms in the form of lampshades, pillows, and throws.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">A crimson red may remind you of that dress you wore when you met the love of your life.

Colors must flow from room to room.

Think about your journey through your house as <a href="https://www.interaction-design.org/literature/topics/color-theory" target="_blank">marketers think about user experience</a>: Design for accessibility and functionality.

For example, black, white, and gray are timeless colors that are easy to pair with pieces because they set a sturdy foundation that can amplify other shades.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Alternatively, carefully placing pops of warm colors throughout the house provokes deep emotional responses, and a monochromatic palette oozes familiarity and an all-encompassing mood. Another trick is to focus on darker colors for the floor level and gradually get lighter towards the ceiling to <a href="https://www.company.decormatters.com/post/how-to-choose-the-perfect-colors-for-each-room-in-your-home" target="_blank">elongate rooms</a>

Lighting plays a huge role in how colors look inside your home. A color that appears warm and inviting in one room might look dull in another. Keep these tips in mind:

North-facing rooms: Use warm tones like beige, peach, or soft yellow to counteract cool light.

South-facing rooms: Almost any color works, but cool tones like gray and blue balance the bright light.

Small rooms: Light, neutral walls make spaces feel bigger and airier.

Dark rooms: Use satin or semi-gloss finishes to reflect light.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;"><a href="https://www.company.decormatters.com/post/summer-is-all-about-wall-decor-macrame-and-wallpaper" target="_blank">Wallpaper is a great way to get color</a> and pattern into the smallest of spaces. It creates a visual impact that isn't too overbearing because it is in a contained area. There are so many great peel-and-stick options too, that even renters can lap up some wallpaper.

Color trends change every few years, so if you are <a href="https://www.company.decormatters.com/post/interior-design-hack-6-ways-to-add-color-without-painting" target="_blank">fearful that painting a whole wall</a> will transform your home’s aesthetic, incorporate color through artwork and accessories.

How to Create the Perfect Color Palette for Your Home: Expert Tips & Inspiration

Most brownstones or townhouses are narrow and long. Usually 20 feet at the street and 40 feet long. Natural light only enters at the front and back so that leaves a long stretch in the middle with no windows. Squeezing every bit of natural light out of the windows that are there is crucial.

Squeezing Every Bit of Natural Light out of the Windows is Crucial.

Lighting is very important to design, and no kind of lighting is more important than&nbsp;<a href="https://semistories.semihandmade.com/carroll-gardens-brooklyn-home-renovation-brownstone-boys/" target="_blank">natural light.</a> It’s something that no light bulb, no matter how sophisticated, can replicate. Natural light helps any space look warmer and more vibrant. It also makes spaces look larger and more open. A small office or reading nook has an inviting and cozy feel when positioned in front of a window. Suddenly the size of the room isn’t as much of a drawback, but imagine that tiny room with no natural light and it has an entirely different feel.

How can you make sure you are taking full advantage of every bit of natural light entering your home, especially if you live in a brownstone? One of the first things we do is take note of the direction light enters a home. Get a compass out and determine which direction is south-facing. The main advantage of a south-facing window is the amount of sunlight you’ll enjoy. As the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the south side of any house will see the most hours of sunlight during the day in the Northern Hemisphere. Also, note the location of trees (considering trimming them) and other buildings that might obstruct the natural light from streaming in. This will prepare you to design your space to maximize the natural light that you get.

Before renovation at Carroll Gardens Parlor, there were very heavy and dark moldings and window trim. Before renovation at Carroll Gardens Parlor, there were very heavy and dark moldings and window trim.

We made the trim and window casing light and high sheen to reflect more natural light. We also replaced the frosted glass to allow natural light into the middle room.

Big Reno

Not everyone has the ability to rearrange walls in their home, but it might be the easiest way to help light flow freely. If there is an opportunity you should take it. Even removing a small section of the wall can greatly increase the amount of light flowing through. It’s also rarely possible to put in a new window in a brownstone, but it could be possible to replace them with new ones that let in more light. Removing dark trim and anything else that might obstruct them is also helpful.

Adding skylights to the top floor will allow much more light. Our guest bedroom is now the brightest room in the house (with no windows!).

On the top floor, it could be possible to add skylights to rooms. We added a big skylight to a bedroom we have with no windows and it’s now the brightest room in the house! If the room isn’t on the top floor try a sun tunnel. It’s a long tube that can go from a skylight on the roof, through a wall, and open to a room on the next level down. It might only be done during a bigger renovation, but it doesn’t add that much expense if work is already being done.

No Reno Necessary

Many people have window coverings that are permanently installed to cover some part of a window. Look for options that extend beyond the window that can completely open to reveal the entire glass.

Position furniture to take advantage of better natural light. Create spaces that give you the best opportunity to soak up the rays in your own home. Place a comfy chair and table next to a south or East facing window to enjoy a cup of coffee or tea in the morning to start your day off right. Position furniture in a room you might spend much of the day in to maximize the natural light you will get.

Not all rooms are created equal when it comes to the amount of natural light it gets. You can’t change the fact that some rooms might be north facing, have a lot of tree cover, or possibly another building blocking light. Make sure those rooms are painted with a light neutral color. Don’t be afraid to use white! There are lots and lots of shades of white. Think Scandinavian design. They are pros at dealing with very little natural light. Any Scandinavian-designed space will include white walls, light wood tones, natural elements, and small pops of bright color. It’s the perfect solution for keeping a space light, bright, and airy even when there is little natural light.

Consider what sheen of paint you decide to use on the walls. This can help let natural light bounce off of and reflect more light.

Try going up one sheen level on the walls and ceiling to help bounce light around. We are fans of matte/flat wall paint but in our north-facing bedroom, we painted the walls and ceiling with satin paint. There is a slight sheen to it when the light hits it the right way and it definitely helps brighten the room.

Install a big mirror. Plain and simple, it will bounce a lot of light around a room and can almost give an effect of an additional window.

We like installing interior doors with glass in them to help light move around the space. In our guest bath, we installed a vintage door with chicken wire glass and stenciled “WC” on it. It’s a fun feature and brings natural light into the hallway, which is usually a space that doesn’t get a window.

Transoms, glass doors, and lengthened windows also allow for light to flow throughout the entire home.

Finally, lose the clutter. One of the hallmarks of Scandinavian design is a cozy but minimal space. Too much stuff will take the focus off the natural light and how it strikes the surfaces of the room and on all of the stuff filling up the place.

Whether or not you can go as far as moving or removing walls there are so many ways to take better advantage of the natural light entering your home. Even some simple changes can improve how your space looks and feels. So take some action and soak up those rays!

If you don’t have an eye for interior design, then it can feel like an enormous relief to get someone else to do it for you.

Many people choose to use an interior designer to work with, but modern technology now means that there is another option, an online designer. Whichever option your choose, you’ll be saving yourself a lot of hassle trying to design it yourself, potentially making costly mistakes.

Should You Hire an Online Interior Designer or a Traditional Interior Designer?

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">Have you seen my feature wall addiction yet? It’s coming in strong. I’ve done a modern board and batten, shiplap, <a href="https://www.company.decormatters.com/post/how-to-apply-peel-and-stick-wallpaper" target="_blank">peel and stick wallpaper</a>, and today I’m bringing you panel moulding! Panel moulding is so subtle yet makes a huge impact in your space. One of my favorite things about panel moulding is that, once again, it really is up to you in the design of it all. What shapes are you going to do? Where are you going to put it? What type of moulding will you choose for it?

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">See what I mean? Endless opportunities. In our primary bedroom, I went with a very simple and thin panel moulding. I was looking for something subtle, soft, and more traditional and I think I nailed it! What do you think?

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-h2-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">What You Need to Install Your Own Panel Moulding

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-h2-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">How to Install Panel Moulding

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">This assumes your panel moulding is in a box style. The same instructions can apply for squares, rectangles, etc.

1. Tape out your space and see the pattern or look you’re trying to achieve. From here you can measure how much panel moulding you need, what sizes you need, etc. Once you have all of these details you can get to creating.

2. Make your cuts using a mitre saw. Cuts are 45 degrees each. Each piece should be cut resembling a trapezoid (long edges on the same size and short edges on the same side – NOT like a parallelogram).

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">TIP: I use the measuring tape for the first cuts of a certain size, then move on to using the already cut pieces as my guides so every piece that is supposed to be the same size is exactly the same size.

3. Time to install the panel moulding. I liked to start in the middle and work my way out to make sure everything is even. First, find the middle of the wall and the middle of the piece. Then, nail that middle piece in the middle using your nail gun! Take your level, level the piece, and nail in the rest of that middle piece. Next, get your second piece ready, and grab your speed square. Line it up so that the corners match up perfectly. Use your speed square to make that perfect 90 degree corner. Repeat for the third piece. For the last piece, line up the corners on either side and secure them using the nail gun again.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">TIPS:

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">4. Moving onto your next squares or rectangles, repeat step 3. But make sure the spaces between your boxes are even.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">5. Fill your nail holes using drywall compound. Once it’s dry, sand away. Clean the dust of each board using a tack cloth. Then caulk.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">6. Paint away.

<span class="_2PHJq public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background: transparent; font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit; direction: ltr; text-align: left !important; display: block;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: var(--ricos-custom-p-background-color,unset); font: inherit; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); box-sizing: inherit;">7.
