Now I know what you’re thinking: ”Why on Earth is he mentioning the word ‘firewood’ when it’s approximately 1000′ on a cool day in the city???”
I’m not crazy, but I’ve recently fallen in love with the way stacked firewood looks, that’s all. It all started with a House Tour that I posted a few weeks ago, in particular, this photo:

Stacked firewood logs, some dipped in paint, for purely decorative effect.
Thus began my lightweight obsession with stacked, piled and jumbled firewood for a sometimes decorative, though usually practical effect. The result is a rustic, rugged look, that’s also chic and stylish at the same time.

Love the Eames Walnut Stools… looks like A & C, I think. Hopefully, we’ll get some Platner chairs in soon!

Love everything about this dining room; the stacked wood, obviously, the Marimekko tablecloth, and the chairs…

Surely, it might be a little weird to talk about stockpiling firewood in August. And it’s probably even a tad strange that one would stockpile wood when one does not have a fireplace…but, still. It’s all gorgeous decoration anyway!
I’ve always wanted a wooden cottage like that but with glass ceiling to count the stars
