Top 5 Reclaimed Wood Furniture Projects and Ideas

 

1. Repurposed with Style in Honor of Earth Day

Each year we recognize Earth Day, dedicated to Mother Nature, with eco-friendly community activism all over the world. One way to help make a difference is by choosing barnwood furniture, as it comes straight from the source and is a perfect example of practicing conservation in your home décor. Here at Old Barn Star we’re conserving and preventing the unnecessary falling of trees by using beautiful reclaimed wood in all of our barnwood furniture.

2. Reclaimed Wood Dining Room Tables

A reclaimed wood dining table is much more than a piece of furniture for your friends and family to eat dinner at; it’s a place where all your memories get engraved, deep in the wood, meal after meal. When picking out a new barnwood table you’ll want to consider the size of your space, the amount of people typically sitting at the table, and if you frequently host parties.

3. Rustic Coffee Tables for the Living Room and Beyond

A living room staple for most, the coffee table is a piece of furniture that is sure to add a touch of personality to any space. Depending on your style, you may find that a rustic, reclaimed wood coffee table will make for the perfect statement piece to display your vintage books or magazines.

4. Choosing the Perfect Piece of Barnwood Furniture

A piece of reclaimed furniture is a timeless tradition that never looks or feels dated due to the beauty and durability of the wood. With so many different options you can find the perfect piece for every space. When selecting a piece of barnwood furniture you’ll want to keep these three things in mind: furniture needs, type of woods, and room décor.

5. Outdoor Décor

Summer is right around the corner and what better way to spend it than outside, entertaining family and friends? If you haven’t already, it’s time to get your outdoor space ready for all the BBQs and pool parties you’ll be hosting. Have you consider a piece of custom-made outdoor barnwood furniture? It will add a unique touch to the memories you’re about to make this summer season.

Hopefully you’ve enjoyed our recent project blog roundup! At Old Barn Star we have plenty of in-stock barnwood furniture for you to explore or if you have an idea of your own we can help bring it to life.

Reclaimed Wood Furniture Ideas: The Wine Barrel Table

 

reclaimed wine barrel tableReclaimed furniture is the best way to connect the past with the future in your home. Our reclaimed barnwood furniture pieces are a timeless tradition. The craft remains largely the same as it’s been for centuries, but the rustic furniture does not look dated.

It’s a classy feel that can increase the quality of any room. We’d like to highlight new trends for old wood, so we encourage you to consider new reclaimed wood furniture ideas, like the wine barrel table.

Wine Barrel Tables

There are many ways to go about it, and all of them include repurposing wood that would have been scrapped and making use of it. A barrel, as is, can be used as a table without further manipulation.

The effect is a rustic interior to your home and the seasoned nature of the barrel suggests that your home is time-tested and classic. The durability of the wood and the structure of a barrel bound by steel bands ensure that you will enjoy such a table for years to come.

The juxtaposition of the two colors is a nice way of creating variety and drawing eyes to the detail in your reclaimed wood furniture. You can see our attempt on the right.

Give a rustic, timeless quality to your living room, dining room, or wine cellar (appropriately) by incorporating a wine barrel table. Be on the lookout for more combinations of reclaimed barnwood and reclaimed wine barrels! It’s a relatively new concept, and one that we’re excited to play with.

What would you do with reclaimed wine barrels? We’d love to hear your ideas, so talk to us on Facebook and Twitter! And keep checking the blog for more innovative reclaimed wood furniture ideas.
