Decorating Country Home

Country Style Bedroom


Your bedroom is not just for sleeping, it should be a cozy soothing retreat for you to relax in. You can add country flair by choosing an antique wooden four-poster bed, a brass or iron bedstead any one of which will work great.

Easily add texture with a charming country decor comforter or quilt, chenille bedding, a dust ruffle, toss pillows and pillow shams. Don't forget to purchase sheets to match your bedding.

Add lots of decorative pillows, graduating them down in size, cover them to compliment the country decor theme. Organize and store linen in a central location for easy access.

You can paint the walls and add a country-style wallpaper which will add a special touch. Some very nice paint colors would be navy, hunter, or red. Or you can simply make use of natural wood, thus creating a more rustic country decor.


Traditional Country Decor

To enhance your country decor, use traditional-style lighting. This type can be one that mimics a kerosene lamp, or a lamp that has a base that's simple wrought-iron, antique brass or copper.

Keep window dressings simple. Shutters or shades are great for windows, while giving you extra privacy. However, if you are fortunate enough to live in the country or have a private setting in which you feel secure, make use of a beautiful natural framed window to enjoy the sunlight and moonlight.


Interior Design

For the floors, the first choice is wood, there are many choices of flooring available, natural and laminate, you can also use brick, stone, or slate. Place a hooked or braided rug on each side of the bed. Fresh flowers and hanging plants gives the added feel of the outdoors to the bedroom decor.

Give interest to the room through texture, introduce wicker baskets, or a blanket chest to store quilts or other items in. Add shelves to display candles, old family pictures in wood frames, fresh flowers, plus a rustic quilt ladder to display your handmade quilts.
