Cooler temperatures, Sunday football games, Chili and Pie.  All of these things have been on our mind as the warm summer sun has been replaced by the cool, crisp air that signals fall’s impending arrival.  Today’s post is inspired by two of our favorite fall foods: Chili and Pie.  We put together some decor pieces that we think pair well with the food!  Kind of a backwards look at entertaining!  Wouldn’t it be great if you could change your furniture scheme based on what you were serving?  The two recipes pictured above are also featured below so you can give them a try this season!

Amish Hickory furniture in the Log cabin themed home is as much about a lifestyle as a design style. The creation of this interior design may be the simplest and most economical interior design for you to capture because of its use of found natural items as decoration and the use of quality investment pieces from the Amish. Using organic furniture and natural elements as accessory tools you will achieve the native and outdoor feeling of the Log Cabin lifestyle; a lifestyle that showcases the beauty and functionality of native hardwoods.

The Amish create furniture for your rustic Log Cabin style dwelling from red or white oak, walnut & cherry accentuated by the deciduous hickory tree. Like the Amish community, the Cabin home hosts an atmosphere of simplicity, hospitality and gracious living. The Log Cabin interior is a home that demands when you walk inside the door you slow down and relax. It is a home that friends and family love to gather in, spinning memories as they gather round an Amish crafted red oak and hickory pub table and bar stools.

Mixing antiques throughout your cabin home helps bring personality while the Amish rustic furniture brings character. Use heirlooms from the past alongside your new Amish heirloom furniture. Worn, painted pieces blended with the high quality Amish Log Cabin hickory bring a storyline to your room. Birch bark picture frames highlighting your family gatherings sitting atop a chest made of walnut with hickory twig accents say more than you can about the life you lead.

The bounty of nature is captured by Amish woodworkers in the hand made solid wood creations for the Log Cabin lifestyle. The use of comfortable accessories such as quilts, denim pillows, flannel throw blankets and leather upholstery make the room wrap around and hug you in its atmosphere. From fireplace to candle light, the Log Cabin longs for the warming glow of either. Adding elements like fishing poles, hiking boots and fishing creels take the guest on a journey far from the every day. River rocks, wildlife depictions, wrought iron chandeliers, and found items that depict the wilderness you love are essential for the creation of your own personal camp.

To start off with, you might want to consider getting a beautiful little plant stand as your first Amish made piece. Plant stands are incredibly useful in any room of the house and can be used for plants, lamps, books, magazines, baskets, or even art displays. A finely made Amish plant stand cost less than $100 and will give you years of useful style.

There’s nothing better than propping your feet up after a long day of work, so you might be interested in a small footstool or ottoman to go with your favorite comfy chair. Amish made ottomans can be upholstered in decorative fabric or fashionable leather and can be stained to go with any style home. You can even choose one with a glider that you can use with your favorite rocking chair or gliding recliner. You can get an Amish footstool for less than $200.

Good, solid, attractive barstools that will last decades rather than years are hard to come by, but Amish made barstools are built to last. Hardwood barstools are perfect for high countertops in the kitchen or around pub tables in your basement bar. You will also find that most Amish made dining room chairs are available in a barstool style as well. Priced between $100 and $200 each, you won’t find a better quality barstool with more charm than an Amish made barstool.
