Add a Cowhide Rug
Cowhide rugs are some of the best ways to incorporate a western touch into your bedroom or dining room area. You can throw one at the end of the bed frame or right beside a reading chair. It will not just make your room friendlier; it can also make it seem warm like your king bed came straight out of a cowboy film.
Add a New Sitting Chair
A sitting chair next to nightstands will not only give you a spot to sit and prepare for the day or a great place to watch TV or read in your bedroom. A solid wood chair can also give you a chance to pull together the overall aesthetics of your bedroom.Â
A stately and oversized leather chair is the perfect rustic furniture choice best accented with some cowhide pillows. On the other hand, you can also look for a chair upholstered with Native American fabric.Â
It can still harmonize with the traditional western theme of your bedroom while adding a touch of style and pop of color to what could have been a rather dull brown room. Try to pick something with personality without being too loud to the point that it outshines your bed.
Make Your Bed Cozy with a Warm Blanket
It doesn’t matter what type of bed you might have, whether it is a bunk bed, a platform bed, or one with a high headboard. Don’t forget to cover it with a heavy and warm woven blanket. You will be better off finding a blanket in a traditional Native American design and weave. Home decor which embraces native and indigenous art is excellent and always comes in a variety of different styles.
Although you can also opt for some faux leather pillows, these might not be as comfortable as their cowhide counterparts if you plan to use them. You can add several cowhide pillows to your bed and the sitting chairs to make the whole room burst with the Southwest decor theme.Â
These kinds of accents can also pull your bedroom together, not to mention that they are beautiful and functional at the same time. Feel free to mix and match patterns if you like. Everything will work together most beautifully if they belong to the same general family. Besides, don’t forget that mixed patterns are a certified staple of the Old West design styles.Â
Make it even more fun with rustic, western night stands. Etsy has a fine selection of western night stands and different cowboy decor. You can find many with a nice sale price from time to time.
Go for Cowhide and Leather
Cowhide and leather are two materials that will help you create the cowboy dĂ©cor you have always wanted. In particular, cowhide is an excellent complement for your western rustic bedroom furniture. Placing some cowhide pillows on the foot of the bed can transform what would otherwise be a rather piece of bedroom furniture into something Western right away.Â
Pick Medium to Light Woods
Although you can find dark natural wood in western dĂ©cor aesthetics, it is often more common for a bedroom or living room to feature light woods with this particular type of dĂ©cor.Â
When looking for the perfect bedroom furniture, pieces made from light to medium are the perfect addition that can add a nice touch and feel to the space. Of course, the item’s styling will be equally important as the wood’s color.Â
You can dress up even a simple wooden frame bed with Western bedding to match your theme that will look inviting to sleep in after a long day.Â
Create a Pop of Color
Make sure you mix oranges and reds into the room, such as a throw blanket on your bed or a bright sitting chair. These are all desert colors often found in rooms with Western-style home dĂ©cor.Â
The internet is the best place to find great sales for Western bedroom furniture pieces. Try to find a store that offers free shipping or free delivery. This way, you can be sure that you will get the highest quality of pieces in various styles at no additional cost.Â
While many Western rooms often use more neutral colors, some paint will ensure that your bedroom doesn’t turn into a tedious and dull collection of brown pieces.Â
Frequently Asked Questions
How do you care for your Western Bedroom Furniture?
Less is more for Western furniture. Everyday use often only needs regular dusting using a dry cloth and vacuum cleaning along the bottom or crevices.Â
What are the common materials used for Western Bedroom Furniture?
Natural elements define the Western-style. Anything found in the wilderness is helpful in the Western interior design, including wood and animal products like leather, hide, antlers, and bone.Â
How do you find the best price for Western Bedroom Furniture?
A store that accepts a custom order is also great, especially if you want specific features, like a single drawer for your nightstand. Provide the manufacturer with the particular dimensions in h x l x w to get the exact piece you want.Â
