Whether you call it western, rustic, or cowboy home decor, this is a
look that is as comfortable and rural looking as a log cabin in the
old Wild West. There is so much that goes into decorating using the
cowboy home decor to make it look like a different era, but most of it
is simple and easy to find. An abundance of natural materials should
be used as it was in the West. Metal, rock, wood, and leather are the
main ingredients, mixed with cowboy home decor as a secondary role.
Furniture in this style is usually made in a larger scale and without
any fancy or fussy detail. There is plenty of log furniture, twig and
branch furniture, and mission style furnishings. As with any theme,
especially cowboy home decor, color is of the utmost importance to
achieve the total look. The wood tends to be honey colored and the
metals should be black. Accent colors are usually a terra cotta,
brick red, navy, or forest green, mixed with a neutral background of
creams, grays, and tans such as found in a western style fabric or
wall hanging. Fabrics should be tough like the cowboy times. Leather
makes for excellent cowboy home decor, as does anything rough,
textured, and tactile. Suede, wool tweed, birch bark, denim, fur, and
even saddle blankets can be used to add the cowboy theme to a room.
Cowboy Home Decor MotifsThere is no question that a motif is necessary
when completing the cowboy home decor. They can include any type of
animals such as deer, cattle, bear, moose, or fish. Antlers are
extremely popular as well as a wall hanging or a chandelier, but look
for a more creative use for them to be unique. You could make any of
these items into a candelabrum, candle holder, or even a place to hang
up coats according to your personal preference. Other motifs include
outdoor scenes such as fishing, riding, hunting, lakes, rivers, pine
cones, oak trees, wildflowers, and grasses. The cowboy home decor is
all about bringing the outside in, so do it as much as you can without
being overwhelmed. Luckily this is one of the decors when more is
better. When you add accessories to your cowboy home decor, it brings
even more of a comfortable feeling to your home, cabin, or barn.
Horseshoe sconces, twig framed mirrors, old jeans, dried flowers, and
quilts are just a few items you can add. Colorful bandanas can be
used as napkin holders or valances; you just have use your
creativity. Home Decor Discount @ http://www.sogreat.biz
