How to Create a Laminate Accent Wall
Create a beautiful accent wall using your favorite Shaw Laminate. It doesn't require a lot of material and can typically be done in one day. So set aside a day and tackle this fun project that will transform the look of your room!

And don't be afraid to mix it up and create a look that's all your own. Maybe you wanted a rich, dark hardwood look for the floor but you were afraid that it would show too much dust, or maybe that trendy grey that everyone is talking about but you were hesitant to use in a large area. Creating an accent wall gives you the freedom to select a style and color that isn't what you have on the floor; perhaps a contrasting or coordinating color that will transform your wall into a work of art!

We've created an easy-to-follow video that will walk you through the steps to create your own beautiful Shaw Laminate accent wall.
