Floorboards on the wall

If you think you’d like a feature wall somewhere in your house, but don’t want to choose a paint colour or wallpaper pattern, then you could look at using a floorboard or timber panel to achieve a more natural and rustic look. There are so many colours to choose from in this range. You could pick a light board or a dark board to suit your current decor.

I would be looking at Vinyl planks if I were you! They are an easy click system and not too expensive. We’ve just used vinyl on the floor in my new display home and they are amazing. I have been imagining them up on the wall somewhere. We bought them from here. I’ll take more photos and blog about them in a couple of days.

You could put some boards around a fireplace, use instead of a bedhead, or as an entry feature. Check these ideas out…

    I would like that as a skirting board actually… They get so damaged from vacuum cleaner

    I think it’s a great idea, am looking for some thing to fix up over two cupboard doors.

    Stikwood is an amazing resource for wood plank walls! It’s reclaimed wood, sticky on the back, inexpensive and barely weighs anything! My clients love it!

    I really like the first picture – the floorboards as a feature look striking.

    We live in a “Lockwood” house which is essentially floorboards on every surface … in all honesty, it’s a bit much, especially as they’re in a rich amber colour. We are going to cover up the ones on the walls to introduce a more calming effect.

    Katrina: Just a heads-up that your emails are no longer coming through (as in, emails announcing new posts). I haven’t received one for at least two weeks.

    I like the first one in the lounge. I might look at it to put behind a combustion fire. I’m not sure about the babies room though. It looks dark and very harsh.
