Modern farmhouse decor calls for sturdy\/oversized pieces (new or vintage), neutral tones (sage, beige, and gray), wrought iron, distressed finishes, and reclaimed wood. Furniture should be comfortable with cleaner lines and some character details. Try sourcing organic materials for your fabrics, and look for wood furniture with expressive graining. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Selecting Furniture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Secondhand, vintage, and antique furniture look great with modern farmhouse decor! We always recommend starting with yard sales, flea markets, and estate sales to source desks, bookcases, or chairs for your office. You can also try your luck online with sites like Craigslist. When buying secondhand, don’t worry about small scratches or dents, it actually adds some character and definitely won’t feel out of place. If you’d rather purchase new, there are plenty of options available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Refinishing & Reupholstering <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you already have what you need, but it’s just not fitting the look, why not try painting and distressing it, farmhouse style<\/a>? For an even faster update, a quick coat of neutral paint can work wonders towards making over a piece that was starting to feel tired. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
