When you enter your master bedroom, it should feel like home. One way you can transform your bedroom space is through wooden furniture. The deep, brown colors of choosing the fitting room turn your bedroom space into what feels like a ski lodge. After a full day of work, you deserve a space that feels comfortable. Below, we will show you what bedroom furniture items you can start with.

Furniture Item #1: The Bed

A wooden bed frame is an undisputed king of creating your rustic bedrooms. An un-upholstered headboard with deep, mahogany coloring brings you back to a simpler time. 

A canopy bed with these colors also evokes a certain level of comfort. With a complete dark furniture setup, you’ll feel a bit sleepy entering your room. Canopy beds are a form of a four-poster bed, typically only seen in old-fashioned applications. 

You might also consider a pull-down bed, giving your bedroom a transformative effect. That way, you can use your limited space to transform your bed space from a sleeping area to a reading area. 

Furniture Item #2: Bedside Tables

Even against a back-end white palette, a dark-brown bedside table screams about a log cabin feel. These rich shades can act as the accent you need in your room to give you that log cabin feels. 

The distressed wood look can provide excellent benefits to your bedside tables. Part of that rustic bedroom appearance comes back to it looking a bit imperfect, making it perfect for some. 

“Furniture Item” #3: Wood Paneling For Your Walls

While not technically furniture, wood panel walls are an excellent way to create the classic bedroom feeling. This is a classic look that you can modify with a modern twist when it comes to bedroom decorating. 

One bedroom paint idea you can take is choosing an alternate color to the wood. A deep blue color might create a unique feeling while maintaining the overall rustic vibe. 

Some people choose the attic bedroom concept with two-tone walls. Regardless of what you choose, it’s vital to pick a bedroom personality that works for your needs. So look around at image galleries to see what appeals to you. 

Furniture Item #4: A Bookcase

A bookcase is not typically part of a bedroom, but it is ideal if you want to create a no-tech zone that helps you sleep. While you never want to read in your bed ether, having bedroom seating still encourages a relaxing space. 

The bookcase doesn’t even have to be huge. You can have a small one that doubles as a nightstand. Keep around books that you know will help you get in a restful state. Noting too intense or emotionally charged if you can help it. 

Conclusion

Any furniture in your room is an ideal choice for that rustic appearance. Having real wooden furniture in your bedroom is classic and attractive, giving you many reasons to keep it around. Contact our staff at Bertone Woodworking to see what custom woodworking projects we can help you with. 

Bathroom vanities are a central part of your home. Their main focus makes them a primary target in bathroom design. So when looking up the latest design trends regarding this topic, you will find a lot of potential. Below, we will go through the best bathroom vanity trends for 2022.

#1: Open Shelves

The bottom half of the bathroom vanity always gives way to a sink container. However, the area below is a solid portion, typically with no purpose.

Open shelving exists to create a more breathable experience to address this unused space. That way, your master bathrooms don’t look like they have a solid block in one corner of the room. 

The “openness” also expands to upper portions of shelving. Sinks are relegated to small parts of the upper half of the bathroom, giving a breathable look to the entire vanity.

#2: Floating Vanities

Another option to encourage the “open-air” approach is taking away support. Floating vanities have the same appeal as floating stairs, appealing to modern sentiment.

The sleek look makes your bathroom look more like an art piece. But you still have usability with these floating design elements, providing under-the-counter storage.

#3: Double Vanities

Double vanities are when you smack two sinks into a wide vanity. You will need square footage to leverage this popular choice, but it does give you a personal sink. 

This design choice is more than a “his and hers” ordeal. Still, the “we made it” feeling is a big part of why people choose to convert their bathroom space with an extra sink. 

#4: Vessel Sinks

Vessel sinks are those sitting on top of the bathroom. These are great for two reasons:

• It provides you with a unique sink design
• You can leverage extra bathroom cabinet space

The design is awe-inspiring, being reminiscent of the old-fashioned powder rooms. You will often find them in tandem with the grey, neutral colors of stone, or modernist designs. 

You don’t get fancier than vessel sinks in a grey, modern bathroom. 

#5 Touchless Faucets

We might be breaking the rules a bit by focusing more on the faucet. However, the desire for motion-sensitive technology is apparent. 

The feeling of waving your hands in front of a department store bathroom sink and getting sprayed with warm water is lovely. Plus, it means fewer fingerprints on their surfaces. So why not bring it home?

Touchless faucets prevent you from having to leave the house to get this thrill. Among bathroom remodel options, it is more excellent than you think.

A similar application comes to mind when you think of the popularity of smart homes. Being able to bring up your bathroom lights and activate your faucet while only using your hands to touch the door is a pretty cool feeling. 

Final Thoughts

As 2021 comes to a close, we look back to the bathroom updates that never got done. Thankfully, new bathroom ideas are coming out all the time, making it great for this upcoming renovation season.

When creating a warm space, there are many cabinet colors to select. However, not all colors in your kitchen will create that cozy atmosphere you are looking for.

If your goal is to create a warm feeling in your kitchen, we’ve got you covered. Below are some of the best colors you can pick to enhance a warm kitchen.

Color #1: Oak and Mahogany Cabinets

The first color (more of a material) worth mentioning is the classic oak or mahogany feel. These colors of cabinets are traditional, making them often usable in rustic kitchens.

These deep colors are best at absorbing natural light, creating a dark space. For kitchens with a good deal of space, it can help you step away from the “bathroom-like” appearance that comes with tile and other white options.

You should likely avoid painting the walls this color, as it may detract from the brightness of your kitchen. Making a room seem small with warmer colors is suitable mainly if you have abnormally large rooms.

Color #2: Off-White Colors (for Your Walls)

“Off White” is a color scheme popularized by major paint providers like Benjamin Moore. It is called as such because it is close to white but typically mixes with warm undertones.

These neutral tones make them suitable for blending with darker parts of your kitchen. For example, if you have a natural hardwood floor, off-white is excellent for keeping your kitchen looking balanced.

Off-white is usually more prevalent on kitchen walls. So these white paint colors are on one part of your kitchen to color other features (like chairs or countertops).

Color #3: Neutral Paint Colors (for Your Walls)

Neutral paint colors include some of that off-white but also have soft beige colors. These colors are among the warm white that act as a natural balancing act for your kitchen.

Neutral paint colors go well when combined with warmer cabinet colors (like the oak and mahogany example above). So when adding a bit of color or warmness to the kitchen, you need to have an area of brightness.

Color #4: Taupe (for Your Cabinets)

A combination of deep grey and beige creates a color combination called taupe. It originates back to the French usage of the word Mole, but it has expanded to its use of the deep brown color.

Today, taupe is a beautiful deep grey/brown color suitable for use in many environments. On cabinets, you can see their use blend in with a warm (but modern) kitchen.

Because warm and modern can be challenging to approach, taupe creates a unique opportunity. The next time you consider upgrading your kitchen, give taupe a chance.

Final Thoughts

During the cold winter months, creating a warm kitchen typically consists of decorations. With deep brown accents and the light use of rugs, you can make any kitchen to put off that warm fuzzy feeling.

For a permanent method to create a warm feeling, you should consider renovating and replacing your kitchen cabinets. Our team at Bertone Custom Cabinetry can help you make that warm kitchen a reality.
