Fireplace Accents

Spruce up your new or existing fireplace with a shiplap surround! Remember to pay attention to detail when creating your modern farmhouse’s fireplace accent. Use boards with varying dimensions, as this will add eye-catching appeal. Similarly, alternate between hanging your boards horizontally and vertically to create depth. See how somebody did this above – cute right?!

Give the Ceiling Some Texture

Your shiplap accents don’t have to be at eye level. Try giving texture and interest to an otherwise drab ceiling. Shiplap ceilings are all the rage, and they aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. So, take a leap and create a room of interest by hanging your shiplap overhead! Friends and family will love this decorative attention to detail.

Give Small Areas Style

Tiny and often overlooked places, like bathrooms, deserve some love too! Don’t let your tiny rooms be forgotten. Smaller rooms can often feel dark and cramped, so add interest to these little spaces and keep them from falling flat by decorating with shiplap. Because shiplap is typically painted white, your room will remain bright and airy, while the rustic texture breathes life into it.
