Rustic decoration ideas:

Wooden coffee table

To start with, a wooden coffee table in the middle of your living room is one of the best items that will define your rustic home. Whether you decide to go with white painted legs or steel legs, your coffee will only need a pile of books, a rustic vase with fresh flowers to reflect the rustic style.

Rustic dining table

Just like the coffee table, your dining table has to speak rustic. If you are in for DIY-ing your dining table, wood pallets can serve the purpose. Otherwise, you will have to opt for a farmhouse-style table, with a wood slab top and steel or white painted legs.

Wood mounted shelves

DIY-ing these shelves is not hard. If you have wooden slabs in hand then you are ready to create beautiful rustic shelves to mount on your wall. You can decide whether to mount them using steel support or no shown support. These shelves will have a rustic impact on your visitors. Make these shelves home for a pile of standing books, a nice flower vase, or frames with your family’s pictures.

Rustic wood art

A pile of horizontal wood slabs and some nails are all you need to make a wonderful; rustic wood art. Instead of putting one next to the other at the same level, try moving those right and left in a way to create a moving effect.

Next, decorate these slabs with some brushed paint here and there, or simply hang on some handmade vases with the use of ropes and mason jars.

Rustic frames gallery 

If you have an empty wall at home or a long hallway, then this wall will make a home for a gallery of rustic frames. Tall, wide, or squares all shapes work together. Canvas, pictures, or frames with shelves inside, these decorative items will join hand to give you an eye-catching rustic frames wall gallery.

Centerpieces

On Christmas, I did this centerpiece using a wood slab and mason jars. It is quite easy to create and everyone loved it. You can use rustic flowers, pine cones, or any other items to decorate it. Wood slabs make very beautiful centerpieces.

Vintage clock

Yeah, I won’t say contract your vintage clock because why not DIY. However, try finding a farmhouse of a vintage clock to hang on your wall. You can add it as well to your rustic frame wall.

Curtains

Simple curtains with neutral colors are all you need to fix on your windows or doors. I favor sheer white or off-white curtains. However, roman shades also add their value. If you want to choose your curtains, go for colors such as white, off-white, grey, nude… Make sure to choose light-colored patterns if any.

Lighting

Imagine you have a rustic-wide chandelier with holes rounded with black steel, to insert cups for tea-light candles. What a rustic feeling! Furthermore, you can hang on a wood slab on the wall and nail some steel circles to hang candles or light bulbs.

If you are not in for wood materials, how about placing vintage steel chandeliers with white or black colors? Or even benefit from some antique chandeliers to hang or place on a side tabletop?
