Painting Log Cabin Interior Walls

You might be able to get the flat parts of the house painted for 10k but not logs.

Painting log cabin interior walls.

The answer is no it won t. In reality you can. I have also seen a lavender bathroom in a log home that was absolutely beautiful. The wood is enough of a neutral and the addition of tans beiges or grays would be nothing but dreary.

In this case it would probably mean painting and or staining that wall a very very dark shade of brown which would be the most neutral choice as i see it. I think it detracts from the warm log home feel. Your only real option would be to paint the wall an even darker color. If you re dead set on painting your log cabin then do it.

Natural wood products such as cedar shingles and trim pine lap siding or exterior grade plywood can be stained a variety of tones or left to weather gray. Imagine a beach cabin with a light blue stain painted on the ceilings with bright white rafters and trim. While paint protects other things like metals and stone it actually destroys wood. No taking down walls in a log house for just 10k either because that means that you immediately need to redo the floors.

Creamy white walls look great paired with the natural half log wall wood ceiling and timber trimmed windows. The red tones from the rug and couch upholstery work well with the artwork and curtains within the space. Don t ever paint a log cabin. In fact it will cause your logs to rot.

I also would leave painting the log walls as a last resort. An elegant modern reading nook. So don t do it. This log cabin has an appealing southwestern theme.

If your log cabin walls are uncoated and new the first thing you need to do is apply a primer in order to protect the log cabin materials beneath. It also serves as an effective base for further coats on top of the primer. Why does wood rot. Some track lighting which you can direct the lights to hit warm log walls and bounce off would work.

And you shouldn t paint logs. Why can t you paint a log cabin. There s nothing stopping you. You can t do flooring for a whole house for 10k unless it s carpet.

Paint doesn t protect logs like it does other things. So to recap the best complements to a log cabin interior include whites and saturated versions of colors such as yellow blue red and green. Painting a log cabin is likely to cause more harm than good. There are lots of options when it comes to painting the interior log walls of your home.

We re talking about log walls. A little girl s room could be pretty in pink or purple. Great led lighting will go a long way to making your home feel brighter.
