Designing your own little farmhouse is an exciting project. Surely you will want to dive right into planning, designing, and of course, shopping, but sometimes this can lead to further disorganization, mismatched home decor, and a blown budget.
Everyone wants to stand out and be different from others (at least for our home decor), but sometimes stealing ideas directly from a magazine, interior design tv show, or from a friend, is just the thing your farmhouse needs.
Here are some of the most popular and brilliant farmhouse home decor examples that you should definitely steal and work into your own farmhouse home decor.
Rustic Touches
I say farmhouse, you say rustic! “Farmhouse! Rustic! Farmhouse! Rustic!” When it comes to farmhouse home decor, it’s definitely necessary to add some rustic touches (if not all). Think shabby chic wooden floors, open shelves, mason jar glasses and inspirational quotes painted on pastel-colored palette wood.
To make your dream farmhouse kitchen, you’ll need a light and airy theme. Choose white cabinets with soft wooden floors and random home decor items, like a wooden food tray or fruit basket.
Next, add lots of tin and copper. Shiny copper utensils are extremely popular and are easy to find in most stores. Store your sugar and salt, or even grandma’s homemade cookies in tin canisters to set on the countertops. You might think this is stereotypical farmhouse home decor, but isn’t that the point?
Very Vintage
If you want to solidify your farmhouse home decor style, you’ll need to add a little (or a lot) of vintage style. The best way to achieve vintage without going overboard is by choosing a few central furniture pieces as the focus of the vintage theme.
Make your living room or dining table have a vintage look (this doesn’t mean they have to be old!) Adding vintage to a modern splash really adds to the country farmhouse style. Freshen it up with plush, light-colored cushions and don’t forget to work in every shade of beige possible. Natural colors will add to the farmhouse home decor look you’re after.
Cute Chalkboards
Chalkboards are definitely a staple of farmhouse home decor. Whether it’s chalkboard stickers to organize your pantry, a chalkboard sign with the words “love & family,” or a chalkboard wall to draw cute kitchen and food objects and write down your weekly shopping list, chalkboards are an invaluable component to farmhouse home decor.
Tip: Combine a rustic sliding door with a hidden chalkboard to get a lovely farmhouse home decor design that will wow friends, family, and guests every time! It’ll look like something straight out of a Southern Living magazine.
