Planking in the New Year

There’s something irresistible about the possibilities that lie in big, white, open walls. With the start of a New Year, brings new beginnings.  Why not allow those new beginnings carry through into your decorating.  Big, white, open walls promise a new design beginning, a blank canvas that invites you to plumb your imagination. Yet without a note of texture, they can sometimes appear sterile and bland. Planking adds that element of texture that prohibits that bland look.

White-painted planking, which adds depth and definition, yet preserves that pure, pristine appeal. One of the ultimate design chameleons, it swings between classic, cottage and contemporary with ease. New England Classic has all the planking products you need to complete your project.  We offer them in a finished white paint, or unfinished, so you can paint and distress them to meet your individual preferences. 

If you love the look of white walls, but need some ideas to get your creativity flowing, here are some we think you might like. If you are working with tall ceilings, by adding white planking to your walls, you add a cathedral-like look.  This creates a theme of serenity to the room.

If you are looking for a way to make your bedroom a more peaceful place, planking can help you do that. Minimal doesn't always mean boring. With wide white planning, a simple iron bed, and a night side table with detailing you add just enough definition to your space, yet keep it simple enough that you do not distract from the peaceful look you are hoping to obtain.

We hope that these two ideas for your living, dining, or bedroom were helpful.  Planking can also be used around a stair well, or in a bathroom. Really, the possibilities are endless.  New England Classic has the supplies you need to begin and complete your planking project and start the new year with a new beginning to your home.
