Another option. I think even squares up to the ceiling look amazing. This is just done with wooden battens and then painted.

B

Like this

I like A, I have it myself, however feel the simpler style of B works better with the bed.

It’s probably my eyesight but I can’t tell where the panels end and ceiling starts?

Im curious as to how the bed turned green too 😆

Lmao @minnie101 I noticed that too. It was due a combination for my fat fingers and the mini keys on my phone 😂. I was thinking that B suited the bed more than the others, but I do love A as well as the squares that @sonia suggested.

😂 Tricky, I love most panelling! A I think is better suited to a period house and either B or the squares are a bit more modern. What is the period/style of the house as it’s sometimes better to work with that ?

It’s a new build modern home. Literally white walls box rooms.

Well maybe pick one of the more modern styles although not sure what MDF kit you’ve bought?

I purchased a panelling kit from “The wall panelling company”.

B, definitely gets my vote but my wife likes A & the squared designs.... we shall see what happens 😀

I cut panels from MGF sheets for one of our bedrooms. Works well, very satisfying DIY project.

That looks fantastic @heatoni

Did you use; no more nails or nail gun to secure the MDF to the wall?

It was no more nails, heavy duty.

Thank you. @heatoni

I am leaning towards B because it allows the beadhead it's own space in the design.

I think I prefer A. When I’m in a quandary and can’t decide I stick 3 small pieces of folded up paper with each name on in a tub, swish it around and take out 3. Highest number wins. I’ve always been happy with the outcome so I guess it’s a case of what will be, will be 🤣

@DaisyEngland 🤣

Update...... We went with B in the end. Work in progress. Going to paint the wall Valspar colour match of De Nimes.

Its B for me!

The photo is too zoomed in. Can we get a wider shot?

This is gorgeous 😍

@arc3d We are away for a few more days, but I’m not sure there’s much more to see. 😄

Lol. No worries.

Just wanted to see the whole wall with the side panels. The proportions looked nice in the original photo. I was wondering how well those proportions show with actuall beading instead of marker pen.

@arc3d Sorry about the poor lighting, we’ve just returned home.

Thank you plusmarcus.

So my thought about the side panels was how do you decide where the bedsides go? Do they sit in the middle of the side panels or do they sit so that the two beads line up with the middle of the bedsides?

If you put the bedside in the middle of the side panel they are too far from the bed. And if you put them so the beads are in the middle of bedside they are too close?

With the original "B" photo I wondered how the proportions would work with bedsides.

Would bigger bedsides in the same style as the bed work better?

Sorry might just be my OCD, but where you have them now, for me, throws off the original proportions.

The original plan was to actually have two large artificial plants sitting in front of each side panels, bit we haven’t found ones that we like yet. Lucky neither myself or my wife have OCD so we can live with the bedside table in their current position.😃

I was going to suggest large plants next to the bedsides!

The plants would help balance the proportions I think.

Update

That looks lovely. Love the colour on the panelling.

It looks good! Who did the paneling work? I'm struggling to find a professional who do this for a reasonable price

@karene thank you. I did it myself but it’s pretty straightforward once you’ve planned everything out. I would recommend drawing it all out on paper and then on the wall a guide. If you’d still prefer someone else doing it for you. I’d recommend searching on your local Facebook marketplace for a handyman. All the best. 👍

Thank you!
