Summer is the Season for…Aspen!

Friday, June 24th, 2011

The season of summer brings to mind many different images, depending on your interests and where you live in the country.  In the Midwest, it signals hot and humid weather, cornfields growing endlessly towards the sky, swimming pools, popsicles, and big 4th of July celebrations.  In the South, it signifies a kind of hibernation period, waiting out the extreme heat of the day and sucking in as much air conditioning as humanly possible.  Some people really enjoy the reprieve of summer with its lack of snow, warmer temperatures, and extra hours of sunshine.

Highly unlikely it would be that one of the first images that comes into your mind when thinking of summer is log furniture crafted from Aspen wood.  However, if you are a connoisseur of rustic furniture and primitive décor, there is no better time to consider adding Aspen pieces to your collection.  JHE’s Log Furniture Place is holding some hot sales on their Aspen lines during the month of June.  These unique pieces are crafted from dead-standing Aspen wood and retain much of the same look as you’d find when hiking through the North Woods.

The cool look of pieces such as the Aspen Estate Double Top Log Rail Bed can provide an inviting chill during the hot temperatures of summer.  Lying in this log bed can evoke the spirit of camping in a mountain forest, hiking through a Colorado meadow, or skiing through the trees during the dead of winter.  Thinking and dreaming cool can bring quite a bit of relief after a long day of working and playing in the hot summer sun.  The next time you dream of the summer season, your Aspen bed may just be the inspiration for your imagination.

Furniture for Fido and Fluffy

Monday, January 17th, 2011

Aspen Lodge Log Bunk Pet Bed, Model #SIG-BPBED

For many of us, our pets are as much a part of our household as the human inhabitants are. Some lucky pets are as loved and spoiled as children. We see images on television commercials of cats being treated to a dinner at the table, complete with fine china. I have friends who have upgraded the size of their bed in order to accommodate their canine and feline sleeping companions.

Buying a larger bed is not always the only answer. You can buy Fido his own log bed, a miniature version of your own rustic resting place. The Aspen Lodge Log Pet Bed is a scaled-down replica of the human-sized Aspen Mountain Snowload II Bed. You can even purchase a matching Aspen Lodge feeding bench for Fido to enjoy his bedtime meal. The Montana Glacier Country Rustic Log Pet Bed is a carbon copy of your Montana Classic Spindle Log Bed and also comes with a matching feeding bench. If the Cedar Lake collection is more your style, you can enjoy the completely grown up Log Canopy Bed while Fido chills out in his Log Dog Bed.

If Fido and Fluffy the cat both like to jockey for sleeping position on your log beds, together they can sleep comfortably closely beside you in the unique Aspen Lodge Pet Bunk Bed. The only arguing between cat and dog is who gets to climb the ladder and sleep in the top bunk. Your kids can even sleep with their best friends. Think of how cute their room will be with their Aspen Lodge Twin Over Twin Bunk Bed paired beside its miniature version. Everyone is happy with their own sleeping accommodations…even Fido and Fluffy!

Double Purpose Space Saver

Friday, December 10th, 2010

Rustic Lakeland Twin over Futon Bunk Bed

There was a time that I was just browsing over Tumblr when I stumbled across a very cool picture. It was a picture of two sofas that can transform into Twin Bunk Beds. It was so cool, like Transformers in real life. The comments are all about Tumblr-users wanting one. It was really a cool piece of furniture, especially when it comes to space saving. Usually in our era now, rooms or houses are getting smaller and smaller. Or sometimes, we are gathering more and more stuffs into the house that space’s slowly getting smaller and cramped. Modern living has its flaws as well, like smaller apartments, smaller condominiums and houses. It’s just our lifestyles moving faster and faster on its pace that even houses and personal spaces are affected nowadays.

But I saw something that can match that Transformer Sofa-Bunk Bed, and it’s the Rustic Lakeland Twin over Futon Bunk Bed. It’s a sofa below and a bed above, a total space saver. You can put it in the guest room or in your own room and save twice the space a sofa and a bed could occupy. This is what’s great about contemporary style furniture. They can be innovative as well and evolve themselves into modern styles but keep its own personality. I totally like its appearance and convenience. It does look good, charming and comfortable. Who wouldn’t want one of these in their home? Well, I definitely want one, because I know the benefits and use of beds like these. You should get one too and see for yourself how much space you’ll save with this rustic bed. There should be no question about their quality, because Jhe’s don’t make low quality furniture – ever! What about the appearance? Well, you can see it for yourself. This bed will leave you awestruck because of its modern yet country coolness.

Thrifty Holiday Shopper

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

Clearance & Specials at JHE's Log Furniture Place

I used to be a carefree spender. Perhaps it was the immaturity of youth or the lack of financial experience, but I figured that if I had money in my checkbook that I could spend it. When there wasn’t enough money in my account, I occasionally threw down some plastic. I didn’t think too much about a savings account, or putting money aside for a rainy day. I figured that if I wanted something (or, in my case, I “needed” it), then I should purchase it.

By now, my outlook has changed considerably. I am still learning about how to be a thrifty shopper, but am happy to report I am well on my way. The economic downturn that our country has been facing the past few years has certainly changed the spending habits of many Americans. The lifestyle changes my husband and I have experienced since we married have played a large part in my financial transformation.

Now I consider it a great thrill to find a discount item in the store, shop a great sale, see the total amount drop with every coupon used, find a treasure in a thrift store, or discover the ultimate bargain while “curb shopping”. My distaste for shopping and consternation with seeing the amount due rise with every item scanned has abated somewhat.

Branching Out

Friday, November 26th, 2010

Meyda 48"L Twigs 6 Light Chandelier, Model # 108758

Log homes are a reflection of Mother Nature’s abundant beauty. Open, full log rafters are a trademark of log home interiors. Other features are a reflection of the home designer’s taste. One such detail is the use of branches throughout the home.

Twigs or branch details can be seen as exterior decoration in the gables or in the railings of decks and porches. Not only is this an attractive way to add visual interest to the home, but it is also an effective way to utilize more of the trees that had to be felled for use in construction. The gnarled, twisted appearance of the branches adds another rustic element to the log home.

The character created by twig and branch details can also be carried into the home’s furnishings. A twig chandelier adds a unique pop of light into the dining room. Twig panels incorporated into chairs and beds are functional as well as beautiful. Because the branches are small and variably placed, they provide a natural mesh to hold arms, cushions, and bed sheets effectively in place.

You may love log furniture but desire to add something more unique to your collection. Consider branching out and bring a piece with twig details into your bedroom, living or dining room. Not only will you be using more of the original tree, but celebrating nature’s bounty in a new and interesting way.

Log and Iron Combined: Perfection!

Saturday, November 20th, 2010

Ozark Iron Circle Leaf Style Bed

Contemporary style doesn’t have to be all wood or log, that’s what I learned.  But I still won’t forget that log or wood alone can create great masterpieces all by themselves.  Still, when wrought iron is put on log, another masterpiece would come alive and impress us all.  I’m talking about Log and Iron beds that have their own beauty with two elements combined in one.  Some of its beds are made from solid iron frame and added with lovely hand-peeled logs for a great finish.  But logs and irons does not stop with beds, they are also perfect with tables and benches, even with chairs.  Take the Ozark Iron Circle Leaf Nightstand for instance; it’s built with white cedar logs and strong irons that you will be guaranteed of its quality and stability.

Log and Iron furniture have its own accent or character that comes from its appearance alone.  It might remind you of the Victorian era, or many other, when they have their highlights in existence, even now.  I particularly admired their flexibility to fit into anywhere you place them, whether in your home or cabin.  Each furniture has their own design, uniqueness, and the uniqueness of Log and Iron furniture, like beds, is outstanding.  The durability can never be doubted, as wood can stand solidly alone, then much better when combined with the strength of wrought iron.  Log and Iron benches or end tables can be great additions to your already wonderful interior design, they can never outshine but compliment your other furniture and by looking astounding as well.  We should always be experimental, even with furniture, and never be afraid to try other sorts and you’ll be surprise of each masterpiece that will make you awestruck with its structure and beauty.  It can never harm us to try furniture made of log and iron, though we are a fan of barnwood furniture, we can still appreciate other ones that are still relatives in logs or wood, whichever element they are combined with.

The Best of Both Worlds

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010

Frontier Ironworks Pine Pole Bed, Model # FIW-BED-PINEPOLE

How many of us can say that we don’t love sleep? Sure, some get more than others. Some struggle just to get to that restful state. But when we are there, in a deep peaceful slumber, it is heaven. Sometimes we resist leaving the bed, wishing our alarm clock would run away and hide, that the demands of the day would leave us alone. Every once in awhile we push everything else aside and revel in the luxury of spending many hours in the comfort of our bed.

Most of us have work and family obligations that keep us busy and away from home, sometimes more than we would like. When we are home, our bed is likely the piece of furniture that we spend the most time in and on. Since that is the case, we obviously want it to be as comfortable and functional as it possible can be. We want it to be a reflection of our hopes and dreams, to be representative of the reason we spend so much time working and carrying out obligations. Our bed needs to be our own personal oasis.

And because of that, each of us has a different ideal of what the perfect bed is like. You may prefer a bed that is constructed of hand peeled cedar logs, or a log bed with a little more character, or perhaps you veer more towards a bed constructed of iron.

But what if you like both the character of logs and the hard lines of iron? Logs have a lot of personality, but what if you want to add your own special touch to your bed? You can have the best of both worlds with a log and iron bed. The main construction of the bed is comprised of sturdy logs, while iron details are included in the head and footboards. JHE’s Log Furniture Place offers several different designs, but you can also customize the iron details of your bed to make it truly “you”. Bedroom accessories are also available to carry your theme throughout the bedroom.

If your personal bedroom oasis is one of logs and of iron, consider treating yourself to the best of both worlds. Enjoy the time that you get to spend in dreamland, and enable yourself to dream both further and longer than you ever thought possible. When you are sleeping in the perfect log bed, sleep time is just that much better.

Four Poster Pergola

Thursday, September 30th, 2010

What kind of bed do you sleep in? A fluffy California king? Or perhaps a queen size with an extra firm mattress? Platform beds, high rise beds, four poster, air bed…they come in all shapes and sizes. Take a trip to your local furniture store and browse the sleep collections, and you will witness the variety for yourself.

You might be someone who has a “boring” bed and are looking for a way to spice it up. Yours is a comfortable bed, a spacious king with a high quality mattress that you find to be incredibly plush. It has been outfitted with a down comforter and pillows, covered with high quality sheets, duvet cover, and pillow shams. Yet it is still missing something.

Decorating is an art that has no rules. When you are looking to do some decorating in the bedroom, look in places other than the obvious. For instance, a pergola is an item that is typically found outdoors in a flower garden. However, it can also make an attractive archway over the head of your bed. The Cedar Log Pergola that is sold by JHEs Log Furniture Place would be a great choice for this purpose. Silk flowering vines can be woven through the branches of the pergola for a fresh-from-the-garden look. Candle lanterns can be hung from its crossbars and lit for a romantic glow. Pair the pergola with wooden posts at the foot of the bed, string gauzy fabric between the two, and you have a unique four poster bed. The best thing about this four poster pergola bed is that if you happen to tire of the look, you can disassemble it and use the pieces in your outdoor garden.

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window?

Sunday, September 5th, 2010

Natures Twist Dog Bed

Buying a new pet is a huge responsibility. It requires time, effort and care to make a pet survive. You have to feed it regularly, check its health, and make sure that it’s comfortable on his new home. Pets aren’t just animals – animals are just like humans, they are alive, they have souls, feelings or emotions, they also have their needs. Before you go and buy a pet, make sure you know what sort you want, and if you’re capable of taking care of it. It is said that pets can be your greatest pals; they can be loyal and loving towards you if you love them back as well. If you give them your TLC (or Tender Love and Care), then you can expect some love right back from them. It’s like give and take, same with us people.

Dogs are the top on the list when it comes to pet. They are very loyal indeed and was claimed to be man’s best friend. So my first advice is to get a dog, it should match your personality and also taste. Don’t get a huge dog if you can’t control it, don’t buy a very small dog if you can’t carry it well. Buy an average dog that will fit you and will be easy for you to take care of. After getting the right dog, you’re now off to buying dog food for it. You wouldn’t want to starve him to death and send him rummaging around your house searching for food for itself. Buy it just the right amount of food, spoiling your pet might not get you anywhere right. It is still great to discipline your pet a bit so that he won’t go astray and you will get control on him always.

Next would be your dog’s shelter. Wooden dog houses outside on your yard wouldn’t be just for your dog’s comfort but also for your own yard. A dog house can add some personality into your garden, along with your dog of course. But if you don’t want your pet to get too dirty, well then log pet beds would be your solution. Log pet beds are comfortable and affordable at the same time, along with the cushion; your pet will definitely love a log bed. It will match any part of your house and you don’t have to worry about its quality. Log beds are known to last almost a life time, with the right care of course, just like for your pet. Your dog will certainly feel your care and love by getting him a comfortable bed inside the house, away from too much heat and rain. Getting your dog a nice bed is like telling him beyond words that you care for him and that you will be responsible for everything about him. It is all about loving your pet like he’s a fellow human being. Pets deserve to be treated right, a nice log bed, food and TLC will make him happy, and he will make you happy in return.
