1. DIY Shiplap Fireplace Backsplash
If you have a fireplace, why not consider adding some shiplap to the section above the mantel? This is a great idea if you just want to incorporate a bit of shiplap into your décor but don't want to do an entire wall. It will instantly bring the attention to your fireplace which should probably be the focal point of your room anyway. Plus, it's so easy to add a shiplap wall section to this small area and it makes a really huge statement wall.

Plus, it's pretty easy to do and something that you can handle yourself without worrying about hiring a contractor.

This idea gives you the look of shiplap without all the work.

4. Easy Colored Shiplap Walls
If you want to add the look of shiplap but you want to also draw more attention to a certain wall, paint the boards before you hang them. I love this black shiplap wall. It's such a wonderful focal point and such an easy fix, too. This would be great in a bathroom or even as a statement wall in the bedroom or kitchen, depending on the color that you choose to paint it.

5. Rustic Shiplap Breakfast Nook
Turn that breakfast nook – or the corner of your kitchen – into a beautiful farmhouse styled eating area when you add shiplap walls. You don't have to do the entire room. Just redo the walls around the area where you have a table and chairs or bench. This would add a lovely rustic country look to any kitchen, even if you don't have a dedicated breakfast nook.

6. DIY Shiplap Inspired Charger Plates
Turn ordinary charger plates into farmhouse styled décor when you add shiplap. You can do this with actual shiplap boards, just glue them together, but an easier way would be to cut the round and then style it to look like shiplap. This would be beautiful to display dishes on a farmhouse table and it's such an easy plate to create.

7. Gorgeous Shiplap Clock
If you're looking to add farmhouse charm, a shiplap clock is a must and you can build this one yourself really easily. You can buy these of course at most high end department stores but they're not cheap. You can build one yourself for a fraction of the cost and still get a great shiplap styled clock. You'll need shiplap of course, as well as a few power tools and a clock kit to make it.

8. Shiplap Chair Rail
You can turn an otherwise ordinary wall into something spectacular when you add a chair rail with shiplap. Just measure your wall up to where you want the chair rail to begin and add your shiplap to the floor. Then separate your walls with decorative moulding and you're all done. I love this idea for contrasting colors. Maybe paint the shiplap white and have a slightly bolder color on top.

9. DIY Shiplap Kitchen Island
Your kitchen island can become the focal point of the room when you redo it with shiplap. This is such an easy way to implement this farmhouse styled décor into your kitchen and it doesn't take that long. You can just add the boards over your existing island exterior to add a bit of dimension or completely redo it in shiplap style – your choice.

10. Hanging Shiplap Coat Shelf
I love this coat shelf that is made from repurposed boards. It has that great farmhouse look and can be hung in the hallway or entryway if you have a foyer. The hooks are perfect for holding coats, umbrellas, or whatever else you need to hang and it definitely has a great decorative property to it. I found this one on Etsy for $69, but you could easily DIY it if you prefer to do it that way.

11. Rustic DIY Shiplap Command Center
I absolutely adore this command center. It has that great farmhouse quality and is perfect for busy families, and you can build it yourself in just a few hours. You just join your scrap pieces of wood and then add your calendar and maybe some mini clipboards to keep track of receipts, bills, and whatever else you need to have a handle on. This is such an easy project and would look perfect hanging in the kitchen or in your home office.
