Live Edge Wood home décor adds a designer touch to every interior space. With their unique appearance and range of colors, you can always find a wood slab that fits your design aesthetic! Whether you’re looking for a DIY project for yourself or a finished live edge slab that’s ready to install, here are 5 ideas to liven up a room with live edge wood
Live Edge Home Decor Accents
Warping in live edge wood is typically caused by the moisture content changing throughout the slab at different rates. If one side of the board is allowed to dry faster than the other (e.g. it was left laying on its face with little air movement), the side of the board that is dryer will shrink faster than the side that has more moisture causing the board to warp.
1. Live Edge Mirrors
Mirrors make a perfect project for irregular shaped wood slabs! You can use the organic movement of these slabs to your advantage, and create a truly one-of-a-kind mirror. (We have some amazing Black Walnut, Maple, and Oak Mirror Slabs in stock right now!)
2. Live Edge Headboards
Elevate your décor and bedroom-set with an unexpected wood slab headboard. Whether it is a straight edged farmhouse style or a free flowing live edge slab, these headboards will be a beautiful addition to your space. We also sell headboard cleats for easy installation!
3. Live Edge Floating Shelves
Live Edge floating shelves are the next big thing! Spice up your kitchen, bedroom, or bathroom walls by choosing wood slabs with wild live edges, organic round edges, and unique character to display your home décor and momentos.
4. Live Edge Charcuterie Boards
While charcuterie boards do make food presentation more entertaining, they also make great home décor! Makers and artisans keep dreaming up new ways to create these boards with a variety of materials including epoxies, tree slices, and mixed wood types. They’re not just a serving piece, but an art form as well! Consider using live edge charcuterie boards as decorative table centerpieces or display pieces.
5. Live Edge Clocks & Frames
Small Live Edge Slabs are perfect for easy, personal projects. Round Live Edge Tree Slices make an excellent base for unique wall clocks or desk clocks, or you can cut out the center for a perfect live edge picture frame! Prefer a rectangular frame? Thin, narrow live edge slabs can be used to create these pieces with great live edge character.
