What design ideas do you have for a woodsy log cabin feeling?

Q. What type of furniture and wood type? i like pine, and mahogany. what metals? color schemes or any other neat ideas for decor do you have?
what type of kitchenware? (pots,cups,dishes?) load me up with ideas or examples

A. Log furniture can do much to add a woodsy log cabin feeling. Cedar and aspen are the most beautiful types of wood as far as I'm concerned, and if you have logs with character they can really add a rustic feel. Red cedar is also very pretty, and adds a cedar scent to the cabin. As for decorating ideas, a log quilt rack adds a nice touch totjere a cabin bedroom, as well as a source of warmth in the snowy north.

There is some pretty neat furniture out there that features canoes, and would look nice in a cabin-type setting. Leather furniture also looks nice in rustic decor, as does knick-knacks and furnishings built around an animal theme. Some popular themes would be bears, moose, deer, or trout.

There are also some very beautiful patterns for couch covering that feature a woodsy look. You can also have bedspreads and curtains made out of those patterns.

Log home magazines are a great place to look for more ideas on log cabin decor. They have pictures of beautifully decorated rooms. I would look at those magazines, or some log cabin picture books, and make notes of what I liked about each room. Then I would look for those items on the Internet.


How to decorate my sons bedroom in a military theme?
Q. I need some ideas on decorating my 6 year old sons room in a military theme. I want it to look nice and put together and not tacky. He already has a quilt that is cameo with tanks and airplanes on it. He also has 2 model airplanes hanging from ceiling. Any ideas?

A. Put a few posters up that says "Army" or "Military". Don't put up too many though if you want to keep it clean
