Normally, when people think shiplap, they think accent walls, but there is more to shiplap than just walls. You can use it horizontally, vertically and in so many unique applications other than full walls. Shiplap has the added benefit of being available in a wide range of colors and finishes, making it fit with just about any style and budget.

With so many possibilities, we decided to put together a list of some of our favorite unique ways you can use shiplap in your home. 

Shiplap Fireplace Accents

Using shiplap around fireplaces is a great way to hide unwanted brick surfaces. Rustic Collection shiplap and trim were used to create a beautiful, bright and clean fireplace accent in this home.
