How low is the low?

Hi schmoola, I have a finished basement and covered walls with ship lap wood on bottom and Sheetrock on top. We also put in a drop ceiling. We did this about 20 years ago and still love the look. We stained our wood all American but I have seen some paint it white. It's a family room so I don't want to worry about the white walls. The drop ceiling works gtpreat bc it gives you access to pipes, wiring, etc. good luck!
