Hubby and I are finally getting started on updating the house we bought almost 3 yrs ago!! We have dark wood panelling in our living room and we can't decide whether to paint it, or cover with very thin sheetrock. The room has no windows except a door, so is VERY dark...and I'd like to really lighten it up. I've read some of the older posts and saw something about covering it with mud and then painting like Tuscan??...sounded interesting. The ceiling is also vaulted with wood beams...so it will be difficult whatever we decide. I am also having a difficult time visualizing painted panelling...and I can't seem to find any pics...so am looking for any help available! Thanks!
