RUSTIC BEDDING and BEDROOM DECOR
|
And easy access is not the only beautiful aspect of using a rustic quilt as the linchpin of your bedroom's decor. An added bonus is that these old quilts (at the time of this article) are CHEAP! When rustic decor was at its peak awhile back, vintage patchwork quilts were rather expensive but I have found that prices, even for the old quilts in good condition, have come come considerably.

RUSTIC BEDDINGHomemade quilts are just one of the options that are available for use as log cabin style bedding. Old quilts are often associated with country cottages rather than rough log homes in the wilderness but are often used to soften the edges in a rustic bedroom that is being decoratedd for a lady.
Decorators who have the budget to indulge in the high end of rustic comforter sets for decorating log cabins belonging to their clients.
Moose, bear and woven Indian blankets with lovely designs and colors reminiscent of a forest certainly appropriate for hunting or log cabins. Fabrics with hunting scenes or certain animals are often used on the comforter or duvet cover in bedrooms occupied by hunting enthusiasts while fishing print fabrics may be preferred for the trout or fly fisherman.
THE BOTTOM LINE
In closing, you will not find lace, eyelet or ruffles on rustic bedding. Save the floral prints and pastel colors for your bedroom at home and look for no-nonsense blankets, quilts and comforters that reflect the design of the cabin or log home. Look to the area that surrounds the home to get bedroom decorating ideas and tips for color scheme and never be afraid to buy secondhand or vintage linens that have a well-loved look and feel to them.
