The old panels had been ruined by having carpet (!!!) glued on top of it. Some I painted, but I chose to make this varnished seagrass beach mat for other panels. I like the effect, though it wasn't super cheap in the end, maybe $10/m2.

Re: Sea Grass Beach Mat As Cladding
The edging is just white painter's tape, varnished over.
