    Our fixer upper had a bunch of holes on walls in each room it seemed. We did a lot of sheetrock repairs, but I do love a good accent wall with stone or wood. I think they bring texture and character to the house. So many fun ideas!

  2. This is so ironic that I am commenting on a subject my daughter and I were talking about earlier! Today was her daughter’s ninety birthday and we went over to her house to help celebrate after she came home from Build-A-Bear and she showed us a couple of rooms that she and her husband remodeled. Her bedroom was one and they used the ceiling to wall tapestry. What was cool about it was it looked like they added another window! Then the wall behind where their bed was facing, they put white long wood panels that added a little ambiance of rustic nature. They added a ceiling fan with dimmer lights. It truly is beautiful and made the room seem brighter and beautiful! And it wasn’t that expensive - just time consuming! I want my bedroom done like that - hopefully someday! This was really pin worthy!! All these suggestions are awesome and very useful!! Thank you for sharing ��
