Bedroom Decorating Ideas Using Amish Oak Furniture

The Amish are famous for a lot of things, including quilt-making and sturdy hand-crafted furniture. You can design your whole bedroom around the oak furniture from an Amish manufacturer. Buy all sorts of Amish oak furniture to decorate your bedroom in a variety of styles, from country to elegant. Does this Spark an idea?


Amish


Keep in line with the Amish oak furniture by decorating your bedroom in the Amish style. This style is very simple. Get unfinished Amish built furniture and apply mineral oils instead of painting or staining the wood. Purchase an Amish quilt along with your furniture or sew one yourself. Use the quilt to cover the bed as the focal point of the room since it is the largest piece of furniture. Hang plain white or cream curtains at the windows. You may also want to add some roller shades to give you privacy when necessary, since the light colored curtains allow people outside to see right through them. Add some Amish artwork to the walls. Use a wrought iron quilt rack to hang some extra quilts for decoration or to use when the weather is extra cool.


Country


Give your bedroom a country style using your Amish oak furniture. Leave the oak a light color, but use a stain and polyurethane to protect the wood. Cover the bed with a country style quilt pattern, such as Bear’s Paw or Dresden Plate. Get some eyelet curtains to cover the windows. You could also use an eyelet valance and hang some more colorful curtains at the windows to give you the necessary privacy. Add a vase of wildflowers, whether real or artificial, to place on your oak Amish dresser. Drape some faux greenery around the posts of the oak Amish bed to help give it that relaxing country look. Add an Amish oak armoire for extra storage of blankets or clothing. Place baskets around the room to use as garbage cans or hampers to enhance the country look.


Elegance


Make your bedroom elegant using the oak Amish furniture as a base for decorating. Purchase unfinished Amish oak furniture and stain it a fairly dark color. Cover it with a coat or two of polyurethane to protect the wood. Cover your dresser with a strip of lace. Use a fluffy comforter as the bed covering during cold, winter months or a light bedspread during the warm summer months. Hang artwork on the walls, using frames that are the same color of stain as the oak Amish furniture. Sew or buy long curtains that hang to the floor to add to the ambiance of elegance.
