Using bargain buys from Homebase, Katie was able to add style to the space – and many think it looks “amazing”[/caption]
And don’t worry if you’re a total beginner and are not a DIY whizz, as thanks to cheap buys from Homebase, there’s no cutting involved.
Posting on social media, Katie, a mother from the UK, gave her followers a before, during and after look at her baby Immie’s bedroom, which we think is one of the fanciest looking nurseries we have ever seen.
Alongside the short clip, the content creator penned: “How we panelled the nursery for under £50…”
Not only this, but Katie then added: “We picked up the boards from Homebase.
“They were pre-cut so it made it super easy!”
What was once a totally plain wall, has since been given a total overhaul with DIY panelling.
In Katie’s video, viewers saw her partner stick down the panel boards to their daughter’s nursery wall.
The Shaker Wall Panel Kit that Katie bought is currently available to buy on the Homebase website.
It secures easily to walls with glue, nails or screws and fits with multiple kits for longer runs.
According to the online listing, the Homebase buy comes “pre-cut, saving you time and effort during installation”.
Not only will these panel kids “add character” to bedrooms and lounges, but they will also “help you create the perfect finish in any space”.
Whilst the kits were once priced at £34, they have since been slashed down to £28, making them perfect for those on a budget.

Katie, who has two children under the age of two, later confirmed that she completed the panelling with a lick of Dulux paint in the shade Nutmeg White.
As well as this, she then painted the top of the wall with the Dulux paint Pure Brilliant White.
Additionally, Katie accessorised the space with a cot from IKEA, an Asda teddy bear and cute wall art.
