Log home plans: The finishing touches
Granted, the building process will be both rewarding and challenging, but the fun really begins once you've completed building your log home plans from The House Plan Shop. Now you're ready to start giving your new log home a style that is uniquely yours. In general, we recommend starting with some earthy elements and natural colors, but you should add artwork, rugs and furniture that are as individual as you are. You certainly don't have to stick to traditional rustic style, but earthy elements enhance the cozy, airy atmosphere of cabin and log home plans.
Not only are these elements aesthetically pleasing, but they also promote the relaxing, comfortable lifestyle for which these floor plans were designed. Whether you're building log cabin plans for a vacation home or permanent residence, you should feel at ease in your new rustic haven.
Cabin plans : decorating tips
Make the most of your new cabin by adding small decorative touches that will make your new home unique. Remember, less is more--these homes are designed to be airy and relaxing so you don't want to create clutter.
Here is a list of some decorative elements that you might want to consider after you've finished construction of your new cabin plans:
- Wooden framed furniture
- Use interesting upholstery patterns, textures and earthy colors
- Rustic lighting
- Intricate head boards carved with outdoor scenes
- Animal print rugs
- Wildlife and Native American Art
- Quilts
