Popular types of wall paneling include shiplap, beadboard, picture frame molding, and more.

It can be installed both vertically and horizontally, although the latter is more traditional.

Pair it with clean-lined furniture and color accents for a more modern feel.

The pale wood tones give the space a Scandi-style feel.

This leaves room for details like the light fixtures and furniture to become the main focal points.

Use real reclaimed barn boards or opt for faux barn boards from your local hardware store.

The result is subtle but adds to the overall look and feel of the space in a big way.

It has a vintage, farmhouse feel and is great for bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and more.

Crown moldingwill instantly make any space feel more elegant and elevated.

We love the way this half-wall paneling is accented with matching crown molding.

First, your overall budget will play a large role in what you end up choosing.

Next, take ease of installation into account, particularly if you will be installing it yourself.
