3. Okay, now let’s talk lath. I’ve had a lot of questions about what lath is.
Lath is: a thin narrow strip of wood nailed to rafters, joists, or studding as a groundwork for slates, tiles, or plaster. (from Webster dictionary)
And generally, it isn’t standard in size and width. So, when my husband ran across several bundles that were perfectly matching to each other he asked if I would want them. DOH!!
At $7 a bundle (I have no sense of how much it does…we did the hall and door with 2 bundles with lots left over) I was like…Oh Baby Baby…hub a hub!!

I would sand it, and then pour that polyresin stuff on it. That stuff makes it pretty much indestructible.

Good tip! Although, I will say that the porch paint we used was crazy strong stuff!
