Hemstead Swivel Bar Stool

The classic farmhouse look is so homey and inviting. In the high-tech world we occupy, it’s comforting to come home to furnishings that hearken back to a simpler time. Big rustic tables with plenty of room for the whole family, cozy sofas in classic prints, even heavy Wooden Bar Stools: all evoke that feeling of safety and wholesome living that is so appealing after a hectic day of faxes, e-mail and text messages. Creating that snug and pleasant atmosphere in your own home isn’t so hard. The trick is to find a few, carefully chosen pieces that can carry the theme and use restraint to keep the theme from becoming overwhelming. A good place to begin creating this look is in the kitchen, the heart of the home. A little touch, like your choice of bar stools, can go a long way towards establishing that county style.

Chairs and counter stools with thickly slatted backs and comfortable seats are one example of how to accomplish a farmhouse look. The Hemstead Swivel Bar Stool is a great choice to set this tone. It’s a heavy wooden stool with a round, padded swivel seat and slightly curved legs in a rustic dark oak finish. This county charmer from Hillsdale Furniture might not ever be called modern, but you can certainly call it beautiful.

Once you’ve established the look you want in the kitchen, move on to your bedroom furniture as well. Hillsdale Furniture makes a full line of furniture for the bedroom, dining room, kitchen and even the kid’s rooms. Soon, you’ll be coming home to that relaxing farmhouse feeling in every room, every day.
