White paneled wall with decorative moldings, sitting atop a herringbone wooden floor and adjacent to a door.

Hello.

I want to make a similar wall behind the bed. The idea is for it to be somewhere between 120-150cm high.
My question is, which material is best for this? I've looked at both Board and Plyfa, but would like tips on which is easiest to work with and then paint. I will probably need to nail the strips, as it will be a temporary fix until I start serious renovations indoors, so it's not possible to glue only.

Tips, suggestions, ideas, and knowledge are gratefully received :)

I would use a pre-made board and fasten it with a nail gun :)

It looked convenient, but I will customize the wall, so I need to cut "strips" and mount. I would think about 4mm thick might be suitable?

Hello @Happifejz!
How did the panel turn out? What material did you choose?
Oh, I found other projects and forgot about it 🤷‍♀️😅 But maybe in the fall I'll get back with material choices and results 😀

Oh, it looks like you're busy!
I just wanted to say that I found the blog where the picture comes from, and there they say they used IKEA Sävedal cabinet doors, if I understood correctly.

I have myself made something similar as a headboard with 6mm MDF and then a French mirror molding on top. It turned out great!
