3 Places in Your Home That Could Use Reclaimed Wood Walls

The Fireplace

Besides the television, the fireplace is usually the main visual focal point in a living room. With that being said, this makes it a great place to add a decorative touch. Pairing reclaimed wood panels with your fireplace can create a cozy, inviting, and elegant look to your family room or den.
