30. Wood Accent Wall
Years ago, it was common for people to live in log cabins or to have shiplap walls. Over time, a lot of people hated this because it made them feel like they were stuck inside of a wooden box. So as a society, we transitioned into hanging drywall and having smooth walls where we don’t have to think about the wood that’s holding the wall underneath. However, over time, wood walls have come back into fashion.

You can actually buy reclaimed wood tiles online that you can place on top of your wall. This can even be done in an apartment, because you can disassemble the wall when you’re ready to leave. Obviously, this is going to be a lot of work for you to put up the accent wall and take it down when your lease is over. However, for those who’ve actually gone the extra mile to create an accent wall in a small bedroom, the decorating idea has paid off in a big way.
