Rustic, cozy, and charming, are the best words used to describe a barn house. There is also something very natural about having barn house décor even in the most modern homes.

We have done the work for you and have found 10 barn house décor pieces that not only work well with all the décor you may currently have, but they are pieces that are sure to add a little bit more charm to your home.
White and Blue Hues
Barn house décor typically have two things in common lots of wood items and multiple different shades of white and blue. Blue and white are classic shades that work well with any color scheme and décor. Select different shades of blue and white from the richest deep shades to the lightest and place them in different areas of your home including the kitchen and bathroom.
Trestle Table
The beauty of the design of this table is its X-based design. This design dates back all the way to the middle ages. It was so popular because of its ability to allow more people to sit at the table at once. Therefore, if you have a large family this will work for you. The key is having an unpolished or painted wood. You want the table to feel as authentic as possible with all its wooden features.
Metal Kitchen Hood
The hood in your kitchen is typically the main focus of the space. One of the main reasons for this is because of how bold it can be. Why not dress it up accordingly? The best way to do this is to change your kitchen hood for a metal one instead. Adding a metal hood to your kitchen will elevate the space and bring a bold focal point into the kitchen area.
Bold Patterns
Nothing screams “barn house” quite like having bold classic patterns. When we say classic patterns, we are referring to checkered print, and stripes. These two prints are traditional and will get the job done when you want to add a barn house fell to your home with just a few pieces. Add a patterned rug, accent pillows, or even an accent chair in one of these prints.
Brick Fireplace
Most homes offer a fireplace. However, a brick fireplace will give your home that cozy feel that farm homes are well known for. The brick feature adds to the beauty of the space while feeling rustic and unique. Plus, let’s not forget the mantle above your fireplace is an excellent area to add holiday décor as well as small trinkets.
Exposed Kitchen
Not everything in your kitchen needs to be painted or covered up. Consider having exposed wood all throughout your kitchen space. As an alternative to having exposed wood throughout your kitchen keep the space as natural as possible. The more natural the kitchen appears the more-cozy and farm like it will feel.
Pastel Bedroom
Thinking of changing the color of your bedroom? If so, look no further and choose a pastel color. Pastels work great because they are a tad darker than white. Therefore, they work extremely well in the any space they are used in. In addition to that different pastel hues in your bedroom will feel calm and soothing which will help you feel more relaxed at the end of the day.
Pops of Yellow
There is something very country about adding pops of color throughout a space. Which is why we love the idea of having pops of yellow throughout the home. In fact, we love the idea of having a hint of yellow everywhere in the entire home. Take into account having yellow flowers or even yellow patterned pieces to add character to a space that needs a little hint of color in a subtle way.
Eclectic Gallery Wall
Gallery walls work great in all spaces they are placed upon because of how much character and personality they bring to space. The idea is to create a collage of pieces of art, wording, and/or both that add that hint of YOU into the décor. Have a larger than life gallery wall that embraces your area and makes your home feel more cozy and personal all at once.
Distressed Wood
Wood is huge in barn homes as it looks natural and feels cozy. Add distressed wood to your home for that instant barn house feel. Even in a modern decorated home, a few distressed wooden items will elevate the space into a cozier home. The idea is to brighten up the space in a simple yet charming way.
