We’ve stayed at some fabulous Air B&B cabin over the past few years – and the master bedrooms were STUNNING! Below are some of my favorite pictures of rustic bedrooms we saw AND the fabulous light fixtures they had.

So you’re redoing your bedroom in a rustic decor theme and you might have this idea that a chandelier or other creative “statement” light fixture is just what the room needs.
And I totally agree!
But how do you sift through all those lighting fixtures out there and find the one that’s just right–the one that really ties to room together and completes your overall rustic look?
That’s why we prefer to stay at Air B&B rentals when on vacation instead of boring hotels – I get the BEST decorating ideas from the rentals we stay in!
Well, the first thing you need to think about is the mood you want to create.
A chandelier can cast shadows on the walls that dance as it gently sways.
What could be more romantic, right?
Ceiling fans can give your rustic bedroom a more industrial look and wall lighting can really enhance a modern rustic bedroom.
This is a good start, but don’t forget to add other lighting features in the room as well. After all the room may seem a bit cramped and small if you only have one source of light.
But – if you combine multiple sources of lighting you can give the room a more spacious feel and you can create different moods by using different lights at different times.
It might help to think of the light fixture as the central focal point in the room–like the main character in a play–and the other lighting fixtures as all the supporting roles.
Your light fixture will be the main focal point, the main attraction, and the primary piece of conversations.
However, the other lighting fixtures, whether they are lamps, wall sconces, or whatever, are there to help support the role that the main ceiling light fixture plays in the composition of and mood created in the room.
Once you have the mood right, then you can start to consider what type of light fixture you want you want for your rustic bedroom.
Would a more rustic chandelier help create an atmosphere of simpler times that lets you escape from the stressful day to day work life you lead?
Or would you rather have a more elaborate and classic light fixture style to create a feeling of elegance and refinement in your bedroom?
There are all sorts of rustic light fixtures to choose from ranging from antiques, classic, modern, ranging all the way up to crystal chandeliers and beyond.
Even more modern recessed lighting can look stunning in a cabin-style rustic bedroom like this log cabin bedroom I found on Instagram – so COZY, isn’t it!?!?
Just gorgeous, right?
Gimme a cup of hot chocolate and a book – and I’ll be curled up in THAT bed all day!
As you can see, there are LOTS of options for lighting in a rustic-style bedroom so take the time to really consider what you would like the feeling and mood to be for your bedroom.
After all, it is the place where most people will spend one-third of their lives.
You might as well make sure your bedroom space is your FAVORITE space in your home!
