Log Cabin Living:
by: Aldene Fredenburg
If you're looking for a rustic living experience, log
cabins - either individually built or from a prefab kit - are
a great choice; but they do present some unique decorating
challenges. Most often the interior walls around the perimeter
of the home are constructed of the same rough logs as the
exterior; so what do you do to define your décor, or to
provide a new look to a home that's become boring to you?
Drapes on the windows are always an easy option, but don't
stop there. Quilts or other fabric wall hangings can add
interest while establishing a color scheme; add enough large
quilts in your choice of designs and the bare log walls will
fade into the background. (Wall hangings can also do double
duty by helping to minimize drafts common in log homes.)
Carefully chosen artwork can also help define the décor; a
group of small paintings can complement the log walls, while a
number of large canvases can completely redefine the décor,
creating any look you want within the home. To add more
softness to a room, toss afghans over the sofa and chairs, and
add some colorful and comfy pillows. Rugs on the floors
contribute warmth, texture, and more color.
