Decorating With Rustic Bar Stools
Friday, February 1st, 2008If you have a western or lodge style home, then you want to be sure to pick some rustic bar stools to decorate it with. Bar stools are functional for seating, but they can also be a great part of your decor!
Today’s bar stools come in many designs which make them unique and practical. One is able to purchase them in many designs, colors, and materials. Three important criteria to consider when purchasing bar stools are room design, theme and the color of the stools. If you choose stools such as wrought iron ones with camping-themed cutouts or wooden ones with natural fiber seats, you can create a rustic look.
Buying rustic bar stools not only enhances your decor, but it has a practical side, too. Take the height of your table or counter into consideration when choosing stools. Stools come in varying heights, so identify where it is going to be placed in order that you can then select the one with the most suitable height. You need to plan on selecting stools that will provide 10 to 13 inches of space between the bottom of the table or counter and the top of the seat.
Another thing to consider is how many barstools you need for your area. The best spacing for bar stools is 25 to 30 inches from the middle of one seat to the next. Take the total length of your counter, divide by twenty-eight, that should give you a reasonable estimate of the total chairs you are looking for.
Happy Decorating
