Stylishly Allowing Nature Indoors : Walnut Caster Table
This charming walnut table comes from realwoodworks1 and is available for purchasing on Etsy. This is a classical case of redesigning a common nature element (such as a tree branch or stem in this particular situation) and transforming it into a glamorous, outstanding furniture piece. The walnut caster table in the photos below has an emotional story behind. The designers rescued it from fire, probably realizing there is more to it than meets the eye. After cleaning it and polishing it, the piece completely changed its appearance and was added functionality. The sophisticated designed can be used as a coffee table and it even has wheels for easy maneuvering. We think it would go great in a living room decorated with more similar nature elements or in a small home office. Where would you place it?

Here are a few guidelines: if you have a smaller space, choose a lighter color. This will make the room look larger. If your ceilings are very high, painting them a dark color can provide the illusion that they are lower. For small and wide spaces, you can consider painting walls different colors. Additionally, opposite hues on opposing walls can make a narrow room look wider.
3. A floor is more than just something you walk on! If you are already pleased with your current flooring, consider adding a vibrant rug or carpet. These touches can help make the most out of your bedroom. If you have dark floors, sometimes just adding a nice light colored rug can really offer a classic, sophisticated look. However, if you want to completely change your flooring, this is actually easier and more affordable than it may initially look. Many companies offer gorgeous flooring for low prices.

The decision to use matching shams and accent pieces can also serve to create a cohesive design scheme. Have you ever considered euro shams? These are oversized shams, which can truly add a dramatic element to your bedroom. Often you can get these accent pieces at the same time that you buy your bedding set.
5. Lighting is essential Adding new lighting fixtures can often greatly improve the look of your bedroom. However, it is worth your time to contemplate what lighting fixtures work the best for your particular needs. For example, for your convenience, the areas where you get dressed should have ample lighting. Of course, a softer more subtle light is better suited for closer to the bed.
6. How about a headboard? You would be surprised how many people never consider getting a headboard. However, this single element can really improve your room’s appearance. If you want to save money, you can even create your own headboard using wallpaper or upholstery. Just be sure to measure the exact width and height of your bed in advance. There types of DIY projects can often turn out looking surprisingly professional.
7. Window treatments There are a variety of options when it comes to window treatments. You can select long drapes for an elegant look. Of course, if you match these drapes to the wall color, this can give the room a very modern feel. If you prefer a traditional look, contrasting the drape color to that of the walls can be a nice touch. Also consider using valances, although keep in mind that if you don’t pair them with drapes, they won’t offer too much privacy.
8. Hardware options Another way to change up your bedroom that can actually be a lot of fun is choosing new handles and knobs. There are a variety of very modern pieces available today, and they will help to radically transform the look of old furniture and doors.
9. No one likes a cluttered bedroom Lastly, you should always aim to keep your bedroom tidy and organized. You will find that there are likely various items in your bedroom that you can just throw away or place in storage. Try to really analyze carefully what is in your room. Often simply reducing clutter can make a huge impact towards the look and feel of a bedroom. Plus, too much “stuff” can be distracting and even stressful. A non-cluttered room will always serve to help you relax at night.
