Stylish Wooden Home Log Cabin

Are you a true vacationer? If you really are you must adore the calm and seclusion of the woods, encouraging you to have log cabin interiors in your vacation home. The interior design of this interior may look strange but this is what cabin owners look for. They want to have a vacation home that is different from their everyday home. Usually, they want to have a vacation home with a more rustic feel. To create such homes, cabin owners may face some problems in designing log cabin decor. They should pay attention to the choice of furniture, hooks and lighting, and accessories.

In order to create quiet and peaceful log cabin interiors, choose furniture with medium or darker tone of natural wood finish. Find wood furniture with obvious wood grains that go after the natural wood lines with curved legs. Some items even come with a partly unfinished look with polished and smoothed wood but cut to go behind the natural wood grain direction of the tree it cut from. This look works well for mainly headboards, huge tables, and other large furnishings. In addition, to enhance the look of the log cabin decor, go for sued upholstery for lush furniture. With such furniture, a softer rustic feel can be set in the cabin. Choose chair cushions and throw pillows which have matching colors but different geometric patterns so they complement and contrast each other at the same time. For example pick Native American prints or stripes.

Lighting and hooks are also important in log cabin interiors. Opt for organic materials-made lamps. Brushed rod, wood, and unpolished clay will complement your leather and wood furniture. Give them light brown-colored shades on their top edged in leather cord or twine stitching. Avoid any painted shades except for very subtle log cabin decor. If you install an overhead lighting, use rod-iron chandeliers and recessed lighting. Metal chandeliers are perfect to enhance rustic atmosphere since they come in many different sizes while recessed lights offers light which is soft and unobtrusive.

Do not ignore the usefulness of accessories for log cabin decor. Appropriate choices of accessories can add harmony in the interiors. Light-colored accessories with oriental touch can help keep the dark finishes and heavy furniture in the log cabin interiors. For example, you can place ceramic vase, oriental-patterned rugs, vintage quilts, and the like. Make sure that the color of the accessories goes well with the pieces that are already in the room such as cushions and throw pillows.
