This pretty interior caught my eye and upon further reading I learned that the walls are drywall and have been painted to look like wood! Amazing! What a talented painter...I would love to be able to do that! Thought some of you may appreciate it too.

Its a technique, used in the old days, to make one type of wood look like another. I found it really hard to duplicate when working in a historical structure that had it.

Good luck, if you give it a shot. The nice thing about it, you can start over at any point.

I know there are paint rollers that put down a wood grain pattern but I would imagine it would take a lot of practice to get it looking good.

I thought it was a handsome interior and maybe some day I'll give it a try

Sustainus...I'm great! Thanks for asking. How are you? What ya been busy with while you've been holed up at home with all the window blinds drawn? Been knitting? Noelle is still waiting for her baby booties

Hi Dave!
The market has picked up and is actually super busy? That's awesome! I hope it stays active-do you think it will?
