Hardwood flooring can be so darn expensive!

But luckily, HGTV hosts of "Home Town" — and authors of new book Make Something Good Today — Ben and Erin Napier have an awesome hack for classy-looking flooring that's easy on your wallet *and* easy to DIY.

"I never ever ever spend money on flooring," Rach admits. "I buy the cheapest possible, because I have a 65-pound pit bull with really long nails, so what's the point?!"

When Ben and Erin renovated their first home, they worked hard to achieve the aesthetic they wanted without emptying their bank accounts.

1. Start with Beadboard

Buy sheets of inexpensive beadboard (a decorative style of wood paneling), which you can get easily at a hardware store.

3. Glue + Staple

First, glue the pieces of wood down and then staple them in place. Ta-da!
