Decorating your bedroom with a rustic theme can be a lot of fun since there are so many rustic furniture pieces to choose from. Each piece has a variety of options to choose from as well. Often, people look for traditional log furniture, such as a rustic dresser, but there are other items that work, too.

The possibilities are endless when you’re trying to create a rustic cabin look and feel in your home, and the bedroom is the best place to start. Who doesn’t want to wake up feeling like they’re in a quaint cabin in the woods, away from the hustle and bustle, with beautiful scenery and fresh air to enjoy? Bedrooms are meant to be a restful place, and it doesn’t matter who sleeps there – you, your children, or a guest.  Your goal is to achieve a relaxing atmosphere that is free from clutter. For this purpose, a rustic armoire, night stand, chest, or a multiple drawer rustic dresser works perfectly.

A dresser is one of the main focal points in a bedroom, second to the bed. Thus, the type of dresser is just as important as its storage capabilities for linens, lingerie, clothes, and other items. Care and attention is required to find a quality rustic dresser that harmonizes with the rest of the bedroom decor, and one that also has optimal functionality. You should begin by measuring the available space in the bedroom, assessing your storage needs, and picking a style that best suits the look and mood you’re trying to achieve.

How to Shop for a Rustic Dresser

When you’re shopping for a rustic dresser for your bedroom, look for pieces made with high quality materials and manufacturing. You should also consider additional options, such as a mirror, and how you’re going to coordinate it with other furnishings in the room.

You can find a rustic dresser in a number of places, from department stores to garage sales. You can also shop online on auction sites, or at rustic furniture stores. The important thing to consider is what you can expect from these stores. With big box stores, you’re more likely to find low quality items, but at rock bottom prices. If you buy a rustic dresser from an auction site or garage sale, you won’t be sure what you’re getting. If you shop at a specialty furniture store, you’re more likely to find high-quality furniture pieces. They may be high end, but there’s usually a range of prices available so you can find an affordable rustic dresser, too.

You can’t get more rustic than purchasing a dresser made of wood, but there are different types of wood and different qualities to choose from, too. As well, they vary in appearance and durability. Mahogany, cedar, and pine are often used to build rustic dressers because they’re resistant to moisture damage and rotting.  You’ll want to do some research to see which type of wood best suits your needs.
