I have a 4"x10"x14' ugly-as-heck beam in a room that I recently
remodeled. It is a knotty doug fir beam that has been stained dark
green. This is the ridge beam in a loft bedroom.

Any ideas on how to cover this up without spending a fortune? The rest
of the room is drywall and painted white, whith fir trim around the
windows.

I'd go with painting and maybe try a faux finish wood grain to match
the fir trim. There's some labor, but the materials are cheap.
