Farmhouse shiplap walls are great because they can change the whole look of a room in a subtle way. Unlike brightly colored accent walls, shiplap walls use their texture, pattern, and rustic charm to give a room extra dimension. Shiplap can be used as an accent wall, a half wall, or all along the walls (and ceiling or floors!) of a room.
In bedrooms, shiplap walls are commonly used behind the headboard to transform a bed into the focal point of a room. A farmhouse shiplap bathroom will frequently use horizontal paneling as an accent wall or behind the vanity as a backsplash. In larger spaces like the living room, dining room, or kitchen, shiplap can be used wherever your heart desires. To see how other homeowners have used shiplap, check out the following compilation of farmhouse rooms with shiplap walls.
