Nature Inspired Furniture:

There are various styles of furniture that are categorized as rustic. There are beds made of unadorned tree branches while others come with white-washed frames and headboards. Also not left out are the white-washed dressers and simply carved chairs that are hand-painted in order to bring out the grains of the wood. It helps in giving a sort of ‘weathered’ look to the rustic bedroom. As for accent textures for the bed, crisp linen, wool and smooth cotton will do all the tricks.

Mostly, the artworks should come in unpainted but well-carved wood frames, although they can be slightly stained to have that rustic look. The choice of your rustic art pieces should mostly be paintings of animals like deer or pieces depicting farms and forest.
