Create an Accent Wall

When you think of an accent wall in a log home, what is the first thing that comes to mind?  Is it awall filled with shelving, a fireplace, and a television?  Or is it a wall that has been sheet rocked and painting a bold color? 

There is no right or wrong way to create an accent wall in a log home interior design plan.  The trick is to create one that is based on the occupant’s interests, color palette, and finishes the occupants all enjoy.  It does not have to be solely wood and stone finishes when it comes to log home interiors.  Here are some ideas:

• Rather than using stone tiles on your flooring, add them to your accent wall.
• If you are working with a small section of wall, hang granite similar to what would be used on a granite countertop.
• Fill a sheet rocked wall with different sized photographs of family, friends, the property the log home is located on, and pictures of the building process.  Use frames that are all the same finish and color.

There is nothing like having an accent wall in a room that was previously dull and drab.  Changing things up and redecorating the room can really bring the log home back to life.  Think outside the box with the materials, themes, and elements used to create a new look in your log home interiors.
