Choosing a Southwest decorating theme for your home allows you to combine the romance of the old west with the distinctive influences of the Native American, Mexican, and cowboy cultures. Mix in the vivid earth tones of the deserts and mountains that are so much a part of that area and you have your own beautiful scenery right before your eyes. When remodeling your bedroom in this style you are going to want to choose furniture that feels as natural as the elements. Southwest Pine Bedroom furniture is a great choice for accomplishing that goal.
Pine bedroom furniture comes in many wonderful and eye-catching styles. You can choose from rustic log style furniture, or more finished pieces such as a sunburst head and foot board, or a grand four-poster bed with a carved southwest scene. For those wanting a more cowboy style flavor, there are bedrooms sets with real cowhide inserts worked right into the head or foot boards of the beds and the fronts of the dressers.
Purchasing an entire set of brand new bedroom furniture means that your bed, dresser, and bedside tables will all match perfectly with one another and bring uniformity to your room. But if your budget does not allow for that, try mixing and matching some pine pieces even if they are different colors and styles. This eclectic style works very well with southwest decor. Choosing a bedroom set made from reclaimed wood is another option and it will add both a sense of history and natural warmth to your room.
The color of stains you can choose from in pine bedroom furniture is just as varied as the style of furniture available. You want the color of your furniture to reflect the beauty of the southwest landscape. Choosing furniture treated with a sage stain will remind you of the tumbleweed and the cacti that is so much a part of the region. White painted furniture with stenciled colorful Native American or cowboy designs would also be an excellent choice, while darkly stained furniture will set off a light-colored room and soft colored bedding.
The soft porous nature of pine furniture allows you to add even vivid reds, orange or turquoise to the different pieces or parts of the pieces and customize them to your color tastes. Minwax water based wood stain is available in over seventy colors and is fabulous when applied to pine.
Now just add coordinating window coverings, bedding, and throw rugs that reflect the browns, blues, green, yellows and red of the surrounding landscape and enjoy your pine bedroom furniture.
