The house knows perfectly well that the construction of this building is still half the trouble, there is not a little important and laborious work ahead of finishing the interior of the country house, conducting electricity and communications.

Some summer residents invite qualified specialists to finish the house inside, for example, an electrician, because they themselves do not understand anything in electrics and are afraid of it like fire.

But if you know the basics of electrics, you can easily deal with wiring, especially with such a simple one as for a country house, in the circuit of which there will be several sockets, a light bulb, a switch.

It’s understandable with electricity, but you also need to insulate the walls, sheathe them with clapboard, make slopes, etc. In terms of insulation, and sheathing, too, there should not be any special difficulties, since these works are very simple. The insulation is cut to size and placed in the wall grooves, a special material is laid on top of the insulation, everything is shot with staples, or nailed with small carnations. And everything is sewn up with clapboard, it shouldn’t be too difficult either. Starting the sheathing from the corner, the boards are inserted one into the other due to the groove, and nailed with small nails.

The author, having initial skills in the knowledge of electricity, and little experience in construction and decoration, decided to cope with the task on his own without resorting to the help of outsiders and specialists. Thus, save some money for the family budget.

And so now let's take a closer look at how he did this work on the interior decoration of a country house, and what he needed for this.

Materials: wires, socket, switch, casing for wires, insulation, lining, carpet, PVC tiles, nails, screws.
Instruments: hacksaw, hammer, pliers, drill, knife, screwdriver.

And so the first thing he does is the wiring of electricians in the room.

Then he takes up the insulation of the walls.

Next, he proceeds to finish the interior space with a clapboard.

Then he makes window slopes.

I cut a piece of plywood onto the carpet near the entrance and nailed it to the floor, on which PVC tiles will be glued in the future.

The author takes a tile and sticks it at the entrance to a pre-prepared surface.

I installed an antenna on the roof for watching TV programs in the evening, freeing myself from military affairs on the site.

Among the most common ways to design the ceiling, we note painting or whitewashing. This method of lining is suitable even for those who are prone to allergic reactions.

Such decoration of a country house is considered affordable, moreover, any owner of a country house can carry it out.

Advice! For those who want to perform painting work quickly, it is recommended to arm yourself with an airbrush that functions from a conventional vacuum cleaner.

In addition to painting or whitewashing the ceiling, you can also make a modern suspended structure from drywall sheets. It can be made in one or several levels, have additional built-in lighting from LEDs or spotlights.

Among the fashion trends associated with the design of the ceiling surface, we note PVC stretch ceilings. If ten years ago they were considered a special luxury, and they could only be seen in urban apartments of wealthy people, now PVC ceilings have become quite affordable, and more and more often they can be seen in country houses.

Increasingly, professional designers, when carrying out interior wall decoration in a country house, offer customers projects using eurolining on the ceiling. In hardware stores, you can purchase special mounting brackets that allow you to seamlessly mount on the ceiling of eurolining. With this finish, nails are needed only for attaching the mounting brackets themselves, they will not be visible under the decorative boards.

Advice! Fans of ecological style can use unedged boards for finishing the ceiling surface.

Thanks to their rough texture, the room will give the impression of a forest hut. In order to achieve the desired result, the boards are sewn in two layers, hiding the gaps between the planks.

Features of decorating walls in a country house

Finishing the interior walls of a country house allows the use of "breathing" beams. They can also be made in the form of a dummy not only on the walls, but also on the ceiling, giving the room a resemblance to an attic.

When choosing a finishing material for walls, it is necessary to take into account the material from which the house itself is built. For example, in a brick cottage, it is quite possible to use decorative plaster to decorate the walls. The finished coating will not only have an aesthetic appearance, but will retain its performance characteristics for many years.

Advice! If desired, you can glue the walls, which are pre-plastered, with wallpaper.

Professionals warn that only those who have special skills can do such interior decoration with their own hands. In addition, the cost of such interior decoration will be quite high, so not all owners of country houses can afford it.

As a budget option, interior stylists advise choosing drywall. This material is affordable, easy to use. Due to the fact that the drywall contains alabaster, which is pasted over with cardboard on both sides, the material has high strength, it is suitable even for the installation of complex ceiling structures.

Attention! Drywall is unstable to high humidity, so it is suitable for country houses that are not heated in winter.

Decorating the walls of a summer house with wooden lining is considered an easy and affordable way to decorate.

This finishing material is safe for human health, therefore it is suitable for wall upholstery in children's rooms.

First you need to level the walls. To do this, vertical wooden slats are nailed onto them at intervals of 50-60 centimeters. With the help of finishing nails, a wooden lining is nailed onto them.

Advice! To increase the operational life of the finished coating, it is covered with a special layer of varnish or impregnation.

Modern plastic panels can also be called as a popular material chosen for decorating the walls of a country house. They attract cottage owners not only with their aesthetic appearance, but also with their low price, as well as ease of maintenance.

Of course, it is impossible to imagine eco-style plastic panels, but they will look quite harmoniously inside a dacha decorated in high-tech style.

Floor finish

In order for the flooring to turn out not only beautiful, but also durable, you first need to make a high-quality screed. For these purposes, a mixture of expanded clay is suitable. On the finished base, you can lay linoleum, laminate or floorboard.

If you decide to use a board for decorating the floor, it is advisable to purchase a grooved blank so that after the first “wintering” the boards on the floor do not dodge, losing their original appearance.

For the interior decoration of a country house, you must choose a moisture-resistant laminate or use a practical and inexpensive linoleum.

Many residents of large cities tend to leave the noisy city for their summer cottages in early spring. In order for the country house to have a comfortable, cozy atmosphere, it is important to take care of the choice of materials, think over ways of decorating, and choose accessories.

Conclusion

If you decide to choose drywall for finishing the walls of a country house, it is important to know that it is offered in two types. Dry plaster in the composition has gypsum, which is covered on both sides with cardboard. To improve its thermal insulation characteristics, manufacturers use a foaming agent. Professionals advise using such material for finishing ceilings.

GVL is a gypsum, which is reinforced with reinforced fiber, qualitatively pressed with cellulose fibers. Such a plate is resistant to high humidity, therefore it is suitable for wall decoration not only in rooms, but also in basements.

And yet, quite a lot of owners of suburban real estate still prefer to choose plywood for upholstery of the ceiling and walls. This material is easy to install, easy to maintain. Its multi-layer texture guarantees excellent mechanical resistance, as well as good moisture resistance.

The walls, which are sheathed with plywood sheets, perfectly pass layers of air into the room, so a favorable microclimate is created in the room. The good thermal insulation characteristics of this material make it possible to insulate the house, and the soundproof characteristics of plywood will help to achieve peace in the house.

Among the main advantages of PVC panels that attract summer residents, we highlight a good range of colors and textures, durability, and ease of installation. Even owners of cottages who do not have special building skills will be able to cope with their fastening to the surface of walls and ceilings.

What wallpaper is better to choose for pasting walls in the country? Professionals do not distinguish any particular type of wallpaper, they offer to select them depending on the personal wishes of the owner of the house

There are many wallpaper models on the modern construction market: liquid, photo wallpapers, textile trellises, vinyl sheets, so even the most demanding summer residents will be able to make their choice.

With the right approach to the materials chosen for the interior decoration of a country house, it is quite possible to create a real paradise there with your own hands.

The interior decoration of a country house is an exciting and responsible event. Not only the appearance of the building is important, but also its interior decoration. Despite the fact that many consider the cottage a place for solitude and enjoyment of nature, a country house should be comfortable and cozy.

Let's analyze the main options for inexpensive, but high-quality finishing of a country house, as well as useful tips offered by professional designers to cottage owners.

How to start finishing work in a country house

Before you start finishing the cottage, you need to remember that there is no permanent heating in the country house. In winter, many owners of dachas stay in the city, dachas are empty.

Attention! Finishing the country house inside should be carried out taking into account the fact that the materials chosen for the work must be resistant to sudden changes in temperature and high humidity.

It is possible to carry out internal repairs only after the work related to the installation of electrical wiring and utilities is completed.

First, professionals advise to repair the farthest room, and for a two-story house, start from the second floor.

Advice! If there is a possibility that it is possible to stain a surface that has already been pre-lined, it is advisable to cover it with plastic wrap.

All plastering work, including painting and whitewashing, is advised by professional master finishers to be carried out from top to bottom.

Varieties of finishing a country house

The interior decoration of the country house is carried out with various materials. For example, dynamic natures who do not like monotony can use drywall or textured plaster for work.

For those owners of country houses who are planning the interior decoration of a country house for several years, professional stylists advise choosing a laminate, lining or modern plastic panels.

What wallpaper is better to choose for pasting walls in the country? Professionals do not distinguish any particular type of wallpaper, they offer to select them depending on the personal wishes of the owner of the house

At the cottage, they rest not only from the hustle and bustle of the city. Clean air is an essential part of outdoor recreation. Many are tormented by the question of how to sheathe the walls in the country house inside inexpensively, and maintain comfort. For this, an eco-friendly material is used that can endure the winter unheated period at no cost. It is desirable to keep the style of decoration natural, country.

Why did my friend and I study materials

Vadik and I each have several aunts who have no one to help except their nephews. At the beginning of spring, preparations for the summer season began. We need to start putting things in order. The most time-consuming work was the decoration of the walls inside. It is necessary to choose a material that allows the walls to breathe. It is advisable to keep the style.

The task was complicated by the fact that in the winter no one lived in the country. The room was not heated. Our relatives couldn't spend a lot of money on decorating the inside. We will do the work ourselves, but the material must be purchased inexpensively. The combination of price and quality is easier to choose than the cost of the material and its naturalness, environmental friendliness.

I told Vadik about different finishing materials for wooden houses. As a result, he compiled a table that can be taken as a basis for choosing an option for how to sheathe wooden walls in a country house.

Positive qualities of the material	Negative qualities of the skin	Where not to apply trim

Natural materials are more expensive. Savings are obtained due to the lack of wall decoration after sheathing. No need to plaster, glue or paint.

Advantages and disadvantages of solid wood

Wood is a warm and clean material. For many years, after the completion of construction, it fills the house inside with its aroma. To finish the walls, it is necessary to take into account the shrinkage of the new structure and the constant expansion of the logs with changes in humidity and temperature. Beam and boards play less.

The lack of natural material for finishing the walls of the cottage is at a high cost. To make it inexpensive, you can use lining trim and substandard and do it yourself. The work becomes more complicated, it is necessary to eliminate defects, and select the size. The beauty of the pattern is preserved. You can fasten the board to wooden walls with self-tapping screws without a frame. Brick and plastered surfaces should be sheathed with a profile or slats.

To protect against moisture, wood trim is impregnated with protective compounds. The coverage is updated regularly. In the country house, which is not heated, in a year.

Finishing with slabs of wood chips, shavings and sawdust

Finishing with slabs of wood chips, shavings and sawdust

Finishing the wall is inexpensively possible with slabs made from waste wood processing. OSB boards are pressed from wood chips. As a connecting material, glue from natural ingredients is used. For finishing, they have a number of advantages over other materials:

• vapor permeability close to solid wood;
• do not deform from moisture - multidirectional fibers;
• flexible, does not collapse when the walls shrink;
• holds fasteners well;
• has an aesthetic appearance;
• easily processed.

Lack of formaldehyde content, especially in moisture-resistant kitchen and bathroom boards. Supports combustion. When sawing, fine dust is formed. You must wear a respirator.

We sheathed OSB in all rooms, except for bedrooms, in a country house used seasonally. Its construction was completed last year, and the house was shrinking. We needed a finish that would withstand deformation.

MDF boards do not contain harmful substances. Sawdust ground into dust is glued together with tree resin. My friend and I chose a material with veneer lining and sheathed the inside walls in the country house where my aunt lives all year round. The house has heating and was built more than five years ago.

Plywood trim for painting and wallpaper

In an apartment and houses with constant heating, drywall is often used to level the walls. The plates have a smooth surface and under the wallpaper it is enough to putty only joints and dents from self-tapping screws. You can attach large sheets directly to the walls if they are even. Gypsum is poorly breathable and swells with moisture. Therefore, for an unheated dacha, the walls of which are made of logs, it must be laid in several layers, according to a sliding pattern. Plaster and protective paint exclude the term "inexpensive".

Finishing the cottage: 4 budget ideas 2 times cheaper than usual

In our reality, large investments in the repair of summer cottages look quite unproductive. On the one hand, is it worth spending a lot on furnishing a home in which we spend several months at most? On the other hand, no one cancels the quite reasonable desire for a cozy place in their “country estate”.

If you are interested in simple materials and budget solutions that can ennoble and decorate your dacha, then this article is definitely for you. In it, I will analyze the main inexpensive ways of wall cladding and share several creative options for creating an original country interior.

Sheathing options

Today, the construction market offers many variations and a variety of materials that are ideal for finishing a country house. Among the rather impressive list, you can pick up something according to the preferences of the owner of the house and his financial capabilities.

clapboard

Lining is rightfully considered one of the most popular materials used for arranging summer cottages. The advantages of the panels speak for themselves. This:

• their pleasant aesthetic appearance, allowing you to imitate a variety of textures;
• affordable cost;
• high thermal insulation performance;
• ease of installation, which can be handled even without much experience in repair work;
• environmental friendliness of the material.

The interior decoration of a country house with clapboard is a great idea for those who value comfort and coziness above all else. By experimenting with textures and shades, owners will have a chance to create an unforgettable interior without spending a fortune.

What should be considered during the installation process?

1. A high-quality finish is possible only when using a wooden crate as a base.
2. If you want to insulate the walls of the house, you can put mineral wool, glass wool or expanded polystyrene into the frame.
3. Wooden slats for the base should be fixed either with nails or self-tapping screws.

I also want to note that lining can be a very inexpensive and practical answer to the question of how to decorate a change house for a country house.

Drywall

Drywall in popularity is not much inferior to lining. This is a versatile material used both for leveling walls or arranging interior spaces, and for decorating window slopes.

Drywall installation instructions are as follows:

1. The first step is to create a frame of metal or wooden slats. They are fixed to the wall with screws or self-tapping screws at a distance of 40-50 cm from each other.

1. After that, plasterboard plates are attached to the frame. The joints between the sheets are sealed with putty, then primed.

1. After about 6-8 hours (that's how much it takes to dry the primer), you can proceed to pasting or painting the walls.

Plywood

That's really what is fully consistent with the well-known phrase "cheap and cheerful." If you are thinking about how to decorate the walls to make it as budget-friendly as possible, then plywood will come in handy. Such material allows the walls to “breathe”, it has good water resistance (so it can be used for lining the bathroom) and sound insulation.

In addition to such impressive advantages, I will attribute easy installation with my own hands, which can be handled by people who have never done repairs before. As a finishing touch, plywood can either be painted with bright paint or wallpapered over.

How to combine fantasy with lack of money?

Above, I examined the main finishing materials that accompany inexpensive repairs in the country. They will help to put the house in order, and they will solve the problem with light insulation. But what to do when the soul demands the continuation of the banquet and wants something beautiful in a small country house?

I will tell you how interesting it is to decorate a country house, while spending a minimum of money.

Idea 1. The whole world in colors

Considering the most popular options for decorating a room, it's hard not to mention the paint. This is one of the easiest ways to update the interior, which also allows you to experiment with colors and shades, is in great demand around the world. What do future painters-artists need to know?

We paint a tree or lining

1. If you want to give a rich color to a wooden surface or lining, but leave them with an interesting texture, get a translucent paint.

1. Exterior finishes should be decorated only with elastic paints that are not afraid of temperature changes (alkyd, oil). Inside the room can be painted with water-dispersed or water-based compositions. It makes sense to use more expensive silicate or silicone paints only in conditions of very high humidity.

In the photo - an example when the paint only emphasizes the richness of the texture

1. Wall decoration inside before painting should be good, thanks to this, paint consumption will be significantly reduced.
2. If after the winter there is a strong feeling of dampness in the house, do not rush to wield a brush or roller. To begin with, you should thoroughly dry the room (with a building hair dryer or a heat gun, for example).

1. Definitely do not even try to paint over places where foci of rot and mold are firmly entrenched.. Believe me, after the repair work, the fungus will simply continue to destroy the coating. So first get rid of the mold, dry the surface, sand it with sandpaper, treat it with an antiseptic and only then paint it.

Save yourself a little time and do everything as required. Believe me, the result will be worth it.

We paint plaster or drywall

To give plastered or plasterboard walls a more sophisticated look, you can use acrylic water-based paint.

• For better adhesion of paint to the surface, do not spare the primer. In extreme cases (but only in the most extreme), you can use a soapy solution instead, which needs to remove grease and dust from the walls. But still, try to get a primer - with it the result will be more effective and reliable.

• If there are small cracks on the surface and there is no plaster, it is worth resorting to the help of paint with a latex filler. It can hide cracks up to 2 mm in size.
• Do not be afraid of the most "impractical" color in the interior - white. Firstly, white paint is the cheapest, and secondly, any object will look bright and stylish on a light background. In addition, it will contribute to the visual increase in the room.

Idea 2. Wallpaper to be or not to be?

Wallpaper in the country is not only not uncommon, but the most popular type of decor. How to deal with them in the process of repair? I'll consider two possible options:

1. When the old wallpaper began to peel off a little - do not rush to tear them off (unless you definitely decided to change the situation). If they peel off in whole canvases, then there is nothing to do, and you will have to remove everything and glue new ones. In the case when the canvas peels off only at the joints and in the corners, it is better to just carefully glue everything.

To keep the canvas stronger, add ordinary PVA glue to the wallpaper glue (in a ratio of 1 to 6).

1. You have long decided to change the annoying pattern, only in some areas the wallpaper stuck as if tightly. Through a piece of wet fabric, run an iron over them, so the material will be easier to remove.

For those who are thinking about wallpapering in a country house, I will suggest a few tricks to save money:

• look in the pantry for the wallpaper left over from the last repair (some trimmings will definitely remain), ask relatives and friends about the same. As a result, you will be able to collect material for the original patchwork decor. Paste the wall in the room with scraps with different patterns and enjoy the unusual result;

Thus, you can decorate only one wall, otherwise it will come out too colorful. For others, painting or wallpaper in neutral shades is fine.

• most often in specialized stores you can find baskets with the so-called "sale" wallpaper, left over from unsold collections of one or two rolls. The price of their much standard range, you just have to pick up and combine several models in color and texture;

• interior decoration of a country house is primarily associated with the cheapest paper wallpaper. Well, for one or two seasons, they will fit the wave. After the allotted time, their appearance will be far from the original.

I would still advise you to resort to the help of two-layer paper wallpapers - the difference in price is not so noticeable, but they last longer.

To save money, do not choose wallpaper with a large pattern. Due to the fact that you have to adjust the details of the picture, there will be more waste. The ideal option is a small abstract pattern.

Idea 3. Not Italian, but still tiles

Tile is another worthy material for budget repairs. I'm not talking about Italian ceramics, there are many cheaper examples in stores. Again, you have at least 2 options:

• buy the required number of tiles and decorate the kitchen or even the summer shower inside with it;
• again, scrape through the barrel and decorate the selected surface in the patchwork style from the remains found.

Idea 4. Reminder from the past - wall newspaper

An even cheaper replacement for wallpaper can be (so you think) ordinary newspaper strips. Glue them like a regular paper coating, and open them with varnish on top. The main advantage of this option is that over time it will look even more interesting and atmospheric.

By the same principle, you can use old geographical maps or book pages (although I don’t approve of the second option).

Additional Options

If you think that I have finished listing all sorts of inexpensive ways to design a summer residence, then you are mistaken. I have a few more interesting ideas left in my head:

1. Perforated convenience. A couple of perforated metal sheets are a great way to conveniently store pans and knives in the country. If at the same time they also close the bumps on the wall, so much the better.

1. We don't throw away boxes. A few old drawers attached to the wall can create a fairly roomy and comfortable shelving unit. Both practical and useful for decoration!
2. Nowhere without textiles. Another simple way to hide flaws in wall decoration is to cover it with a large panel of beautiful fabric, felt or cork roll (depending on what you find in the pantry).

I tried to find for you the most interesting and inexpensive options for arranging a summer house, even more ideas are contained in the video in this article.

Afterword

If you have a crisis of ideas, and you don’t know how to decorate the walls in the country, then I hope my article will be useful to you. I gave an example of the main finishing materials used to equip a country house, and suggested several ways to decorate it.

If suddenly you still have some questions for me, I will be glad to answer them in the comments. In the same place, share your impressions of the above finishes and express your opinion.
