Natural elements, when decorating an environment, immediately transport us to a quiet place, in contact with nature. Wood or stones, for example, provide a feeling of warmth just by looking at them; even more so if they are accompanied by appropriate lighting and plants that bring life and color.
In this note you will be able to learn how to cover a wall with false stone; an easier to apply alternative to real stone, which will change the look of any room in your home, making it much more original and welcoming.
Process
To make this cladding, a kind of tiles are used that, on the outside, look like stones, but on the opposite side they are flat, making them easy to glue.
When you have obtained them, you will need a high quality adhesive and apply, one by one, the pieces on the smooth wall. You want to start at the bottom and work your way up to the ceiling.
Perhaps in the process you need to cut some pieces so that they fit perfectly in the place where you want.
You will see that it is very simple and that you can use them to cover everything you want. Here are some ideas to do it:
Bathroom
This coating will look great in the bathroom. You can apply it on the wall of the bathtub, or on its lower guard, as you can see here.
You can also apply it in all the surroundings of the bathtub and create a perfect relaxation space within your home. Use a waterproof glue.
Chimneys
Fireplaces or fireplaces are one of the elements of the home that provide the greatest warmth. They invite us to approach the fire, and read lying on the carpet, or lie down in a comfortable armchair. With this coating you can reinforce this pleasant feeling of well-being, in a very simple and attractive way. Use a heat resistant glue.
Kitchen
The kitchen is another ideal place to achieve this rustic effect. Faux stone can be applied to the wall behind the sink, between pantries, or even cover an entire bar or breakfast nook.
Living room
In the living room, this coating will bring originality and warmth.
You can apply it on one wall and paint the other with a striking tone that stands out. You can also give each piece a touch of color so that they look like natural stones that have been washed by the river for a long time.
Exterior
In addition, you can apply them on the facade of your house and make the warmth of your home can be perceived even from outside.
And you, where would you put it?
