Home Furnishing and Decorating with Reclaimed Wood
If you are looking for wood supplies for your new home, why not source them from old barns? This may strike as something of an oddity to most but the fact is; it is actually an excellent idea. Not only does it allow you to save trees but actually lets you get a quality of wood that is a lot stronger and sturdier than new, ‘green' wood.
Reclaimed oak is one of the most popular choices in this regard. This kind of wood, sourced from old barns spread all across the land, is a great way to add quality wood to your new home. One of the most common concerns while using such used wood is the quality. In most cases, you can be rest assured that the quality would be as good as any other kind of wood that you are likely to find, if not better!
Reclaimed timber is derived from old wood beams, decking and barn wood flooring. Old barns dot the entire US countryside and they are the most prolific sources of such wood. Today, the business of using reclaimed wood and timber is now more popular than ever. Beginning in the 1970's people started understanding the history and quality of reclaimed lumber. Reclaimed and antique lumber has always been highly desired by architects and designers for its history, quality and character. The popular usages of reclaimed wood can be found as barn wood flooring, siding, paneling, cabinet lumber, and furniture.
In some cases, reclaiming old timber is the only means of obtaining certain species of wood like the American Chestnut. In early 1904 a Chestnut blight spread across the US forests that destroyed billions of American Chestnut Trees. Today, it's very difficult to find fresh Chestnut wood. However, they are still available in abundance in old buildings that were built before the blight. Wormy Chestnut is a popular flooring and paneling option for many architects and designers because of its beautiful grain and large color range. Other popular varieties include Heart Pine, Maple, Antique Oak, Hickory, Chestnut, Elm and Douglas Fir.
So go ahead, shape your dreams with reclaimed wood. It's cheaper and sturdier than new wood. And you will always be comforted by the thought that your new home is not costing the lives of new trees. Take pride in the inimitable look and feel of mature wood. Add a touch of antiquity in your home and feel the thrill of using a piece of true American history in your modern home.
