One of my favorite interior decorating styles is farmhouse.
I love how cozy it looks, along with the rustic feel it lets off. It always reminds me of a cottage, which reminds me of camping, which if you read my last post (6 things I love about camping) you know how much I love camping.
Farmhouse architecture originated in Germany and Scandinavia. The term Farmhouse was more considered a way of life, rather than a decorative style.
Classic Farmhouse Style:
The classic farmhouse style has rustic wooden elements and often distressed walls.
This style will often have a large porch, perfect for gathering and spending quality family time together.
Classic farmhouse has large kitchens with a lot of wooden shelving, appearing, very rustic.
Modern Farmhouse Style:
The modern farmhouse style may have a rustic wooden bench out front, rather than the large porch, along with farmhouse lighting.
Often with the modern farmhouse style you will see huge vaulted ceilings with rustic wooden beams.
Farmhouse decor gives off rustic and cozy vibes.
It is well known for simplicity, functionality, and rustic look. It is a combination of old, vintage, rustic, and modern. It is a style that is family friendly, and easy to mix with other styles and colors.
How to add in farmhouse decor:
Reclaimed barn wood – Adding a piece of furniture such as this coffee table or this barn wood box will definitely add a rustic appeal to the environment.
Exposed wood beams
Vintage pieces – Using decorative pillow cases like this or this brass vase can be beautiful small vintage touches.
Barn doors – Using sliding barn doors to separate spaces or to close a closet will definitely add the rustic feel. Some of my favorites are these white-ish ones and these dark brown ones.
Farmhouse sink
Farmhouse lighting – Adding something like this fixture which has the wooden look to it, along with the lanterns would be a great way to add a farmhouse touch.
Rustic baseboards
Waterfall tap
Use wire baskets in a functional way.
