In the world of home decoration and DIY, wooden panelling seems to be making a bit of a comeback - when done in moderation.
And one B&M shopper looking to add a bit of style to his living room has discovered an inexpensive way of creating the look, without breaking the bank.
Daniel Huszar, 30, wanted to create a panel feature wall in his living room, but didn't want to spend a fortune doing so, Instead, he created the look by purchasing a simple roll of wallpaper from B&M, reports Manchester Evening News.

Manchester Evening News reports that the wallpaper cost him just £9.99 and he then bought wallpaper mix for £2.99, meaning the entire wall cost him just £13 to transform.
He told DIY On A Budget UK: "I'd seen some wallpaper panelling ideas on Facebook by using wallpaper and the layout of my lounge wasn't really working.
"It felt quite cold, so I thought I would give the idea a try and do a feature piece. I rearranged the lounge, moved the TV over and measured the gap between the frames.
"I then started putting up the paper and used two and a half widths for this."
The wallpaper, which is called 'wooden slats wallpaper', gives the wall a realistic rustic wood-effect look.
Daniel added: "The wallpaper cost £9.99 for a roll which was more than enough for the feature. The wallpaper paste mix cost £2.99 so it was a total of less than £13 to create all together.
"It took approximately an hour and a half to do and I have never put wallpaper up myself before. I just held the roll at the top of the wall, dropped it to the bottom and just put a little cut where the skirting was.
"I cut this to size and then pasted the paper and put it on the wall. I just fiddled around with the paper till it was right and matched up with no gaps.
"A tip for novices would be to get a paper that doesn’t have a difficult match, as that would’ve been much harder."
Daniel is impressed with his DIY feature wall which he says completely changed the look of his lounge.
"When it was finished, I tidied everything up and didn’t really look at it because I wanted to see how it looked when you walked into the room," he said.
"So that’s what I did - I went out, shut the door, and walked back in. I really love the wall and am proud that I did it myself.
"It’s made the room feel so much warmer, with a feature and focus rather than just plain walls with some pictures on them.
"I love doing things on a budget as it feels like an achievement. It’s really warmed up the lounge and made it feel so, so homely. Being able to achieve this look for £13 is incredible and it just changes the whole lounge and feeling of the room!”
