Imagine walking into one of your rooms one day and realizing that a cemetery has more life than your walls do! But don’t worry, decorative wall panels are here to save the day!
Walls aren’t just just support systems for your ceiling anymore! They elevated from “basic white” to “oh my God, where did you get that?“
It’s like your home decided to put on its best outfit, but instead of pearls and a little black dress, it’s donning textured panels, sleek finishes, and patterns that would make a Picasso blink twice.
Whether you’re aiming for modern elegance, rustic charm, or something in between, these panels are here to make your décor dreams come true!
So, buckle up, because we’re about to dive into the wonderful world of wall panels, where your walls can finally say more than just “I need a fresh coat of paint.“
1. Wall Paneling with Hidden Door
If you’d like a sleek transition from one room to the other, or maybe you have a closet you’d like to hide, then a hidden door is the solution for you!
When it’s hidden inside a paneled wall, you can only notice it if you know it’s there!
2. Dark Blue Board and Batten
This dark blue board and batten creates a calming yet moody atmosphere in the room, yet it pairs well with the colorful wallpaper they have going on!
3. Wallpaper and Wainscoting in the Bathroom
If you’re so over the regular tiles you see everywhere, maybe it’s time to branch out and try different things!
Wainscoting in a bathroom may not be the most popular choice, but with the right sink (that can catch all the water) anything is possible!
4. Create a Contrast
For a room to be interesting and dynamic, you need to create contrast and that’s best done with black and white!
This simple bedroom got a dash of life with a black wooden beadboard and walls painted white!
5. Moody Dining
If you feel like your dining room needs some character, a black decorative wall panel is just the right thing! It will give your space visual interest and sophistication!
6. Sage Green Wainscoting in a Nursery
If you want your child to sleep peacefully every night, you need to surround them with peaceful colors! Sage green has a calming effect, while the wainscoting will just make it super cute!
7. Navy Blue Board and Batten
A dark color will always look amazing when brought into a bright and light room! This navy blue board and batten perfectly complement the white and beige in this dining room!
8. Tall Wainscoting in the Entryway
Paneling an entire wall can become very pricey very fast, but luckily, most entryways and hallways aren’t really that big!
So, if you’re looking to give your entryway some pizzazz, tall wainscoting is the way! It will give the illusion of taller walls and it’s chic!
9. Wooden Beadboard in the Bathroom
We talked about wallpaper and wainscoting in the bathroom, but if you’re not interested in that (we admit, it has more of a vintage vibe) a wooden beadboard will give your bathroom a spa-like feel!
10. ”Wooden” Tiles
Alternatively, if you don’t want to commit to wood in a bathroom (for obvious reasons, water + wood = not good), there is always the option of ”wooden” tiles!
These wood imitations are bathroom-friendly and they look like the real deal!
11. Paneled Breakfast Nook
A breakfast nook stands out by itself! It’s cute, chic and it makes you want to start a family just so you can all eat breakfast there!
But if you’re looking to give it something a little bit more, you can always give it some paneling to make it blend nicely with the rest of your home!
12. Stair Paneling
Who said paneling is only reserved for walls? We can clearly see here that that doesn’t have to be the case! If you feel like your stairs are looking a bit bland, an easy fix would be picture frame molding!
You could easily have extra hidden storage under the stairs as well!
13. Vertical Slats Divider
Slats don’t always have to go on walls, sometimes they can BE the wall! Use vertical slats to create a stylish divider without fully closing off the room!
14. Black Paneled Office
If you want a mysterious and moody office, embrace the floor-to-ceiling black paneling and in your free time, you can pretend to be an evil mastermind!
15. Decorative Wooden Wall Panel
If your entryway or hallway is missing something, create an intricate seating/mirror area where you can tie your shoes in the morning or do one final check before you bolt through the door!
After all, this is the place you first see when you walk through that door after a long and draining day!
16. Sculptured Hallway Wall Panel
If you’re not that into wood, there are plenty of more options in wall decor! This intricate wall seems as if Michelangelo just sculpted it!
17. Geometric Wall Paneling
If you’d like to go for more of a modern style, geometric shapes in your wall paneling might do the trick!
18. Upholstered Bedroom Wall
Throw out the wood and stone and embrace softer materials! If you want your bedroom to feel and look like a cloud, go for materials you’d usually sleep on!
19. Intricate Geometric Shapes
With this wall paneling, we have more of a Japandi vibe going on, rather than “Maths”! The whites, gray, and beige perfectly work together to create a harmonious bedroom!
