Using wood and other natural materials, is\u00a0<\/span>huge in interior decor this fall<\/span><\/a>. It\u2019s with good reason, too. Wood finishes are the perfect way to bring the look of any interior design concept together as well as,\u00a0<\/span>adding a personal touch to the family home<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Wood finishes add a sense of warmth, richness and comfort to whatever colors, finishes and materials they\u2019re paired with. The sheer range of woods available makes this material extremely versatile. Pale ash, for example can give a room a fresh yet neutral tone, while a deep mahogany adds warmth and prestige to any living space and oak is perfect for more or less anything.<\/span><\/p>\n

While many of us love to use wood in our interior design, few are aware of the benefits of reclaimed wood.<\/strong> Just go ahead and look at <\/span>Plank and Mill<\/span><\/a>\u2019s website and you\u2019ll see the distinctive finish that reclaimed wood has, as well as its enormous variety of applications. Using reclaimed wood is not only good for the environment but is also perfect for a wide range of interior uses, including\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

Headboards<\/b><\/p>\n

The bedroom should be a restful, tranquil place decorated with neutral tones and unimposing natural materials. Thus, a reclaimed wood headboard can be a subtle yet distinctive addition to the bedroom. The type of wood you choose to use will depend on the overall aesthetic of your room and the other tones and types of wood already present in your bedroom furniture.\u00a0 For example, a headboard made of reclaimed driftwood can strike the difficult balance between making a statement and compromising the soothing neutrality of the room.<\/span><\/p>\n

Feature walls<\/b><\/p>\n

Every now and then you\u2019ll want to call attention to a particular wall and neither paint nor wallpaper will quite cut it. For an accent or\u00a0<\/span>feature wall<\/span><\/a> that\u2019s little more distinctive, reclaimed wood creates a pleasing contrast with paler tones elsewhere in the room. It\u2019s important to remember that wood has a tendency to absorb light, so it\u2019s best utilized in spaces where the furniture and decor is light and airy. Wooden feature walls can be dressed up or down, recreating either a rustic log cabin<\/a> feel or a more sleek, contemporary look. While versatile, reclaimed wood is, of course, unique meaning that your reclaimed wall will look like no other anywhere in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dining tables<\/b><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for something truly unique, a dining table made of reclaimed wood is a wonderfully distinctive piece of furniture that doubles as a fun conversation piece among dinner guests. The great thing is that you\u2019ll never need another dining table as the look of the finish will change subtly with age. While a reclaimed wood dining table is seldom cheap, it may well be the last one you ever buy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Flooring<\/b><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re aiming for a rural, country effect, distressed reclaimed wood will look (and feel) fantastic under your feet. However, if your tastes lean towards the classic and elegant, a darker tone will give the room warmth and grandeur while subtly complementing any antique furniture you may have in the room.<\/span><\/p>\n
