Handcrafted Artisans – Quality Woodworking and StoneworkĪ few luxurious, high-quality items well placed throughout a log home are elevated when it is a one-of-a-kind handcrafted piece. We appreciate older items because the quality workmanship truly shines through the years of service. Thus, old pieces that still have useful life or substance can be incorporated into a rustic design for both function and beauty. Those pieces are usually made of material (wrought iron, hammered copper, etc.) that are less commonly used today than a century ago. An old rusty wrought iron gate or cast iron hand pump may have years of wear, but still, convey a look of having worth as a sturdy piece you can still “trust” – that still has the quality and useful life. While that may hold true, it also implies that a piece that is rustic is also substantial, trustworthy, and still viable. Primitive décor and rustic décor do denote an assumption that a piece will appear to be “worn” or of some age. You’ll likely be drawn to prints, large floral patterns, country scene paintings, natural element lamps made of wood, stone, or antlers, and wooden or stone carvings for statues, candleholders, and other accent pieces. Color blocking is perceived as a more modern interior décor approach. Log cabins are often outfitted with heavier furniture pieces and in the case of upholstered pieces, they tend to be the bulkier upholstery. You only need to turn to the earth to get your color palettes and natural items to get your furniture inspirations. The need to “get back to nature” often translates to the furniture and furnishings throughout the home in order to feel more connected with the common woodland or rural settings one usually builds a log home in.
