Owning that log home may be your dream come true. With the number of log furniture out there however, you’ve probably won only half the battle.

So before you fill up your home, consider the overall style that you want and is right for the house. Are you going for a total country feel or just a touch of rustic in your home?

Size matters.
Houses that use large logs with high ceilings and are roomy in general need more massive log cabin furniture. Conventional log homes with smaller logs and elements however would also look well with a few large pieces combined with smaller ones to achieve a full effect without looking cluttered, which is mostly the case when using many small furniture.

When dealing with high ceilings, you can fill up the dimensions with paintings and artwork and lighting to avoid a flat sensation. Try using a canopy style for your log cabin bedding in bedrooms with cathedral ceiling to prevent a vertical void.

Consider also the type of wood when buying log cabin furniture not just for its color and natural grain but for its durability. A variety of wood is being used in creating log furniture. May it be the pliant hickory, the sturdy white cedar, or the aromatic rot – resistant red cedar, consider the class and craftsmanship of the furniture. The price is usually a reflection of an item’s quality.

Unless you’re working on a really tight budget, it is best to invest on solid-wood log furniture. They present less wear and tear with their dove-tailed joints and fittings and definitely last longer than those veneer plywood and particle boards that are very common in the market these days.

A wide variety of stores sell log furniture. Look for stores that prioritize quality and customer service. While it does well to see the items that you’re buying personally, you can also go online shopping. Just make sure that the stores you buy from are not just out for a quick sale, but deliver efficiently and maintain the quality of their product.

Look for testimonials, call and talk to salesmen. If a store has many repeat customers who recommend them to others, then there must be a reason for it. These quality stores take top-quality log furniture seriously, the way you take your log-furniture-shopping do.
