Rustic Home Decor

One of my favorite trends for 2019 is pairing rustic home decor with very contemporary architecture.  I am always looking for new and exciting ways to jazz up a space.  I love timeless elegance but I also enjoy edgy home decor ideas as well.  This dining room (as well as the rest of the house) has the perfect mixture of both styles in my opinion.  The furniture and artwork is quite modern, but that styling is only magnified when placing it in a room with gorgeous vaulted ceilings complete with rich mahogany beams and pine panelling.  I would never think to use mix rustic decor ideas alongside a mustard yellow and grey palette paired with all that wood, but it works surprisingly well together. 

In my opinion, this awesome kitchen embodies rustic home decor at its finest.  I have always been attracted to western home decor, but never wanted to commit to going full "country." I have what is probably considered a unique sense of style because I love rustic vintage touches as well as elegant contemporary decor.  It is as if this kitchen was made for me.  I love love love how they paired rustic kitchen decor like natural wood cabinets, freshly chopped wood beams and gorgeous plank flooring alongside dainty brass chandeliers over the marble topped island.  It is such an interesting combination but, perhaps surprisingly, it works really well!

I have always been into natural beauty in my home with rustic home decor. So when my daughter moved I wanted to redesign her bedroom using earthy and natural decor. It worked out perfectly with the design theme that our floors and doors in the house were all beautiful oak wood. To match these existing pieces, I found some great rustic bedroom ideas, including custom furniture made from recovered wood and shades of tan and brown throughout the design. I was able to find a lot of these pieces at local thrift shops and the mix and matching turned out amazing. Another common trend for rustic home decor ideas is adding paintings of natural objects, like flowers, trees, or other organic items.

I have been looking for rustic home decor with an upscale twist for our latest redecorating project.  When I found these photos of this gorgeous grey and blue living area, I knew I had found my inspiration space.  We actually have a very similar stone fireplace in our main living area and I want to make it the focal point like they did here.  Sometimes country decorating ideas can get a bit cliche or overdone, but I love the subtly that this designer used when adding quaint little touches.  The awesome bench seating along the back wall is such a fantastic way to bring in extra room for guests without spending a ton of money on a large sectional.

Rustic home decor often involves highlighting natural and rugged beauty, incorporating earthy colors and textures. This bathroom takes the rustic design to a whole new meaning. For starters this beautiful bathroom embraces the feel of outdoor living with a cave like shower made with large rocks. This is a very unique way to add rustic bathroom decor into your home, and really creates the atmosphere of being in the great outdoors. Paired with the stone tile, taking a shower feels as if you are under a water fall outside. The beauty of the stone is emphasized by the gray tones of paint on the vanity and walls. A gray bathroom is a popular design trend this year, whether it's used in a modern, traditional, or rustic design theme.

If you are in search of the best of rustic home decor, then look no further than this epic cabin.  To be honest, I can't decide if I love or hate what they have done with their rustic cabin decor but, regardless, they picked a theme and stuck to it.  Obviously the huge stone hearth is the focal point of the space (and rightfully so).  The craftsmanship is impeccable and, truthfully, you do not need anything else but that to wow your guests.  I do really love the rustic furniture ideas that they paired with it because the simplicity of the leather couches covered in brightly woven pillows and throws does not distract from the fireplace.  Rather, it enhances the design and creates a warm and inviting space for friends and family to gather.
