    Camo means a Color scheme.


    Pressed board means oriented strand board or particleboard. Which is it?


    If you mean drywall, a.k.a. sheet rock. Then that’s the cheapest thing out there. Painted anything you want.


    The great thing about camouflage paint schemes, is that you can keep on messing with them ad infinitum.


    My bachelors degree is in interior design. I can give you more specific advice, if you want to send us a picture !

    I have a dream of doing a Hummer (ex-military version) in custom Barbie Pink Camo...of course I would need to win a lottery to have the expense make sense (or make "cents" is a better word choice). Barbie Camo is Pink, gray, white and charcoal. Camo is camo, but the integration of the Pink makes it a little more feminine. Too much camo in any confined space could be just way over the line of "in good taste" or even make your relaxing "girl cave" anything but. To avoid a ton of redo in the future when you desire to sell your home or rent it, consider using the neutral colors of your camo scheme for walls and floors and bring in the color elements of your camo color scheme in fabrics and removable diy art pieces. You can make your own large scale "canvas" for painting by making your simple frame and using cloth drop cloths from Home stores, paint the large panel canvases with the "camo" design and mount them on the neutral painted walls. Perhaps the concrete floor could be painted a gray and a big colored rug for the pop of color you want/need. Use a camo fabric for window drapes, throw pillows on your girl cave sofa, or a skirting around a girlcave beverage bar. I would just consider reframing and refocusing the "where" and "how" you bring in the camo. Start with a neutral base and then bring in the camo. (If you are really arts craftsy, look up "diy pom pom rug" - this could be way of making your own rug. I doubt it would be any less expensive because yarn is not cheap in mass quantities but it could be super fun to make and enjoy plus it would be totally custom). My out of state ex-neighbor did his garage cave in "his" team colors and after 3 weeks of no interest in his home when he listed it for sale the agent said the garage was a big turn off to buyers. He spent a week in the undoing of his space and then got a bidding war. So just think ahead.

    Great ideas from everyone - the large canvas drop cloths can be painted as floorcloths too. Depending on how detailed your camo is...you could paint your background, then print over it with leaves, twigs, bark, etc. I agree that the more "changeable" your decor is, the more fun you can have living with it.
