There are many ways to add texture to walls. Brick, wallpaper, bead-board, or fabric are some that I have used. I am renovating a small guest bath in my home and I am trying to add interest without breaking the bank! Which I could easily do.......! As I have previously posted, I LOVE the beach, and the casual light feeling that goes along with coastal design. I am thinking about adding wood to the walls and running it horizontally. Here are some examples of how that looks.... I can't decide if I want to paint or just stain it a light color. Here is a picture of a bath that started all this deciding.... Another way to run it is vertical....I like this look also, but I already have bead-board run that way in one of my baths. Here are some other pictures with wood on the walls that I like. I have always loved this kitchen..... And....this look really saves this small attic room from looking like an after thought... Another hallway...love the large mirror Here is one more example of a less expensive way to do it. Just take a 1 x 2 or 1 x 3 and run it on top of drywall. After it is painted you have a great look without spending so much $$$$$ I will post pictures of my bath soon....they are installing the wood tomorrow!
