Farmhouse decoration is a style that has become increasingly popular in recent years.
This type of decoration is usually quite warm and cozy – as a farmhouse should be – and in particular has many distressed pieces of wood that allow homeowners to reuse family heirlooms and breathe new life into economical furniture.
However, this is not the approach we are taking on this issue today. We’ll show you how to get the same look on an equally limited budget, but use new and bespoke parts instead of old and economical items.
So if you are interested or are doing a country style renovation but need ideas, you can find just that here.
