Wooden home accessories to shop now for rustic interior styling

Our edit of the unique wooden home accessories to give your interior the final finesse. 

The best bit about transforming a room is picking out the finishing touches. Painting your walls the colour of the moment sounds fun until you’ve got arm ache, and unpacking (or putting together) furniture can be quite a drag.

But, how about shopping for unique ornaments to decorate the space? That’s more like it. Especially when those purchases are from interesting independent brands and add something special to the interior set-up.

We’re loving the wave of wooden objects and trinkets that we’re seeing in both big stores and from lesser-known designers at the moment. Some are perfect for creating a rustic vibe, while others have a playful feel to them. Many are hand carved and crafted from beautiful materials such as mango or acacia wood, making them pieces to treasure for years to come.

Shop our edit of wooden home accessories for rustic interior styling below and bag yourself something special for your place.
