Decorations and furniture from tree trunks for the home

Enjoy the natural form of a log as a small indoor table. This tree-trunk furniture has one big advantage: it lets the natural beauty of the wood come through. You can use a tree trunk as a side table in the living room or bathroom. Remove the bark and sand the trunk. Whether you oil the wood depends on where you use it; in the bathroom, regular oiling is strongly recommended. For a creative decorating idea, cut the trunk into slices and attach a clock mechanism and hands to the back, as shown in the photo below. Smaller logs are perfect as planters.

Tree-trunk decorations and furniture for the garden

In the garden, tree trunks can be used in many ways, too. Whether it is a table, a serving table with drawers or a wooden garden path, almost anything is possible. For outdoor use, finish the wood appropriately so it can withstand bad weather. An original idea is to integrate LED lighting into the tree trunk – the final effect is impressive!
