Reclaimed wood shelves
Another way to incorporated rustic into your farmhouse decor is with floating wood shelves. The wood doesn’t even have to be finished. Reclaimed woods, barn wood, and unfinished pine are all acceptable woods to use as floating shelves. All look equally charming, so it’s just a matter of your personal preference.
Natural elements
Don’t be afraid to use elements found in nature {in their natural state} to give rustic flair to your modern farmhouse decor. An antler is a unique decor element no one would expect to find, yet it also looks like it belongs on that farmhouse table.
Don’t you just love how all of the main elements in this dining room–the table, floor and ceiling–are rustic, yet there’s somehow a glam feel to the space? The curving armoire, the white chairs, and the elegant candelabra provide the glamorous feel in an otherwise rustic space. And it all works fabulously!
Additional ways to use rustic farmhouse decor
Just like the antler seen above, there are other elements to think about using in rustic farmhouse decor. Old farm implements, like this kerosene lamp, provide rustic charm that even a city slicker will love. Convert the housing of an old lantern into a pendant light for your kitchen, or an outdoor light for your patio.
