Rawhide Country Lamp Shades Enhance Unique Mountain Interior Design

The unique look of rawhide country lamp shades for home decor has been popular since the end of the great depression when women first began to look at their homes in ways other than utilitarian. Decorating kitchens, living rooms, family rooms and dens soon became the fashionable thing to do.

What is now known as southwest decor and western style, as well as ranch style, evolved naturally as the home decorating styles sprung from essential everyday items. The same happened with country style homes. As the wealthy started to have second homes called country homes, the working class started to use the same concepts in their decorating also.

As primitive style lighting such as oil lamps and lanterns were exchanged for the first rural style lamps, it was rawhide that was chosen as material for making lamp shades. Since then, it has been used in home lighting and for lighting fixtures. If you truly enjoy the handcrafted work and style of times past, the natural looking style of rawhide will definitely be part of what you want to use in your country kitchen and rustic design style. There are also a few other things that will help you create the country look you see in designer homes.

For a country kitchen, consider decorating with wood. Primitive wood with rough edges and uneven surfaces is desirable when using it to create country style. If you have a big kitchen, dark colored woods can be used whereas light tones look better in smaller areas. Rawhide country lamp shades look wonderful when used with wooden accessories and look nice in any area where a floor lamp or southwestern style lamp would be placed. One very nice feature of rawhide shades is that they come in light or dark as well as many colors to fit your particular color scheme.

As you think about adding rawhide country lamp shades in your kitchen, along with other rustic decorating accessories, it may not be imperative to purchase new lamps. Western style lamps are best but it is the leather lampshades that make the difference. You may be able to use lamps you already have by just replacing the shade to give it the same southwestern look and style. Whether you choose to keep the lamps you already have or decide buy new ones, you will be happy at the transformation that occurs in your home.

There is no easier way to incorporate fabulous southwest style in your decorating than by decorating with rustic lamp shades. Add a few country style accessories like Native pottery or tapestries along with the shades, and you will create a unique style that will have people talking about your beautiful decorating style long after they leave.

It is easy to find one of a kind, decorative lamp shades in various colors and sizes in stores that sell southwest and rustic style decorating accessories, or purchase them online. If you would like to enhance western decor in your home and create a true, rustic and western design, do so by simply decorating with rawhide country lamp shades.

The Magic of Primitive Country Decor

There are a number of images that go through a person's mind when they are surrounded by primitive country decor. They see a crackling campfire, radiating its warmth to the people huddled around it, telling stories. They see the grandmother sitting in a rocking chair with words of wisdom mixed with hugs and kisses. They see the clear night sky, the tall spring grass, and the vibrant colors of the leaves in autumn all at once. How is it, then, that primitive country decor can evoke all of these images?

Well, in truth, it is due in part to cultural background. A person thinks of these things when they look at examples of primitive country decor at least partly because they have been trained by cultural references to associate these things. But there is much more than just their past experiences at work. Another aspect of the primitive country style that helps to evoke theme images is, well, the visual style itself. Primitive decor is essentially a style filled with things that look simple, old, and natural. The images of a campfire come from the raw wooden features that many primitive pieces have. The thoughts of their grandmother come from the antiqued look of the objects, and the warm images that the style uses.

The thoughts of nature are evoked by the fact that primitive country decor usually uses not only a great deal of natural materials, such as woods and so on, but also because the color schemes are often very reminiscent of the colors you find all around you in nature. Deep greens carry the image of the spring grass, while faded reds and yellows bring thoughts of the leaves of autumn. All of this imagery works together to give the style its appeal, certainly, but it goes even further than that.

There is an unexplainable quality to primitive country decor. It is all but impossible to be surrounded by it and not feel warm and safe. The qualities of primitive decor simply have a universal appeal. Often, the style uses very soft, gentle features, such as dolls and stuffed animals, making them even softer by giving them an aged look, and then it contrasts that softness with the rougher textures of raw wood. It may seem like a bizarre idea at first glance, but somewhere between the soft fabric of a stuffed rabbit and the rough bark of the raw wood furniture, there is magic.

Primitive country decor is really a very loose style at its core. You can usually bring together a perfectly good roomful of decor items by walking through a flea market and perhaps an art fair or two. There is no strict line in the sand that says where primitive country decor begins and ends, but it is always easy to recognize. Simply look for things that show a sense of warmth, an antique essence, and a showcase of nature's beauty in its raw forms. The greatest aspect of the style is that as soon as you come across the right mix of elements, you will instantly know it. Just look for thought of campfires and rocking chairs.

Primitive Country

Often we think of home improvement projects as massive time and financial commitments that involve a lot of temporary upheaval in the bathroom, living room, kitchen or other larger rooms in the home.

This is not necessarily the case when simply decorating. And a "country" look in the design can be a lot of fun.

Country Style design is a broad type of decorating style that can depend on a house's geographical location, but is often embodied by basic, simple furniture, subdued color schemes, vintage-print fabrics and milk-paint finishes.

To learn how to create a contemporary country style in your home - one that is attractive and fits your lifestyle - keep reading for the basics of country colors, furniture, fabrics and accessories.

Country Colors

Subdued, muted colors that will show wear over time are the first step to creating a rustic, country feel. A more modern country design may use a vibrant color palette that utilizes accents of navy blue, black, white or red to offset the design.

Country Furniture

Opt for simple, shaker style of furniture that's primitive, but sturdy. Flea markets, old attics, thrift shops and antique markets are great spots to find treasures for your beautiful, country home.

Overall, you want to look at pieces that have minimal ornamentation, simply painted finishes and basic, straight lines. Flourishes and European embellishments should be kept to a minimum.

Country Fabrics

When you're picking fabrics for your window treatments and accent pieces, look for small or visually interesting prints that appeal to the era to which you're trying to speak.

Popular country patterns include floral designs, striped and checked patterns and anything on a basic calico. When you're selecting fabrics, try to match large prints with smaller ones or louder fabrics with those that are more subdued.

If you're using just two or three fabrics for accents, pillows, curtains and chair cushions, try to use them throughout the house. You'll bring the color palette and your style scheme to every room with minimal effort, while still tying the house together.

Country Accessories

Your accessories and other final touches will make your room and really pull the design style together.

Look for homespun or handmade items to create a beautiful, rustic country-style. Touches like hand-woven baskets, beautifully carved bowls, primitive pottery or hand-forged metal fireplace elements are not only lovely to look at, but also functional.

Look for hand-spun and knit or quilted accent blankets to build warmth and bring your color schemes together.

Remember, overall, country style is about simplicity and grace. Don't go overboard with checkered prints or rooster-themed cookware. You want a look that's rustic and basic, not overdone and kitschy. With effort and restraint, you can create a beautiful country house that's truly a home.
