Get This Look: Rustic Horizontal White Pine Paneling

Horizontal Pine Paneling 1
Warm, rustic and full of character, horizontal wood paneling in highly versatile Eastern White Pine is a relatively simple and inexpensive way to totally transform a room. It can be white-washed, painted or stained to match your decor, or simply protected with a clear coat to let the natural beauty of the wood shine through.

Horizontal paneling got a less-than-stellar reputation after the faux wood versions of the 1970s made it seem dark and dated. But using real wood, this interior wall treatment has a fresh look. Narrow tongue-and-groove panels in a smoother grade of pine have a more modern look, while shiplap or wide-plank paneling can add a rustic or country aesthetic.
