Using log furniture in the dining room creates a beautiful rustic style. Logs include natural accents such as knots, burls and beetle marks that aren’t found in traditionally manufactured wood dining sets. When every aspect of the furniture crafting process from picking the logs to adding an appropriate finish is done by hand, the result is a one-of-a-kind work of art.

The unique beauty and style of log beds draws the eye and can turn any bedroom into a rustic paradise. But many of these beds may fall outside of the price range of those shopping on a budget. By purchasing an unassembled log bed kit such as the Pine Lake Western Corral Log Bed Kit, any homeowner can enjoy a stunning bed without breaking the bank.
The Pine Lake kit features hand-sanded Norway Pine Logs that have been pre-drilled and tenoned for easy assembly. Hardware and instructions are included with all sizes to make putting the bed together as effortless as possible. This eye-catching piece of country decor may be purchased in traditional clean-peeled log style or a more rugged “rustic” style featuring hand-peeled logs. Whether left unfinished or protected with clear coat, every log shows off the natural beauty of pine wood.
In order to keep the Pine Lake bed affordable, dimensional lumber side rails are used to support both box spring and mattress. King bed sizes come standard with bed slats, and slats for smaller sizes may be purchased separately if desired. Once assembled, the bed brings a sturdy presence to any bedroom. Squat and rugged, the Pine Lake bed complements everything from bright country decor to rustic cabins and provides comfortable sleeping space for people of all ages.

Whether it’s a cottage or cabin, a small home has a special cozy atmosphere that only improves with the use of country decor. Light woods and fabrics in simple colors accentuate the quaint feeling of a country home, adding to its comfortable appeal. The Lakeland Twin Over Futon Log Bunk Bed combines these characteristics and puts a twist on classic bunk bed style. Instead of two beds, the Lakeland bunk features a twin bunk above a futon. This unique functionality makes it perfect for teen bedrooms and guest rooms, as it adds both sleeping and sitting areas in one solid furniture piece.
The bright, buttery color and sturdy nature of Northern White Cedar logs make the Lakeland bunk both attractive and reliable. Mortise and tenon joins ensure that the clean-peeled logs lock together and stay strong through years of use. Double log side rails rim the upper bunk, and bunkie boards may be added for additional support. The ladder is built in to ensure safety and stability. Adding a clear or Light Honey finish to the bed offers extra protection for the wood while bringing out its beauty even more. The bed may also be left unfinished. If a smoother look is desired, the available upgrade to hand-sanded logs will accentuate the natural beauty of the cedar wood.
Features
• Handmade from clean-peeled Northern White Cedar logs.
• Upgrade to hand-sanded logs for a smoother look.
• Mortise and tenon joins ensure stability.
• Double log side rails improve appearance and offer extra support.
• Safe, sturdy built-in ladder.
• Twin bunk sits above a multi-purpose futon.
• Futon may be used as a sofa or a bed.
• Choice of black or khaki futon mattress.
• Add bunkie boards for more top bunk support.
• Available in three finishes: unfinished, clear or Light Honey.

Glad you stopped by and welcome to my country furniture and decorating review site. I'm Deb and I have been in love with this style for years. You might say that country decor has grown up, because today it is nothing like it was years ago. Now its all about finding personality for your lifestyle rather than a museum. Mix it up, live a little and be sure you always invest in quality items that will take everyday use and grow better (not worse) with age.
