Decorating with birch logs is popular in rustic chic decorating. I love the fact that you can purchase birch logs in about any size diameter or length. Â You can buy them from Ebay or Amazon as well as many specialty stores.
Even though I have used birch logs in a variety of different craft projects like candles, birdhouses and even lamps, I also love decorating with birch simply by displaying the logs.
How To Display Birch Logs In Decorating
When I decorated the fireplace mantel in our study I added several thin birch logs, in various lengths, throughout my display.
I also love to just place them in vases or buckets, especially around the holidays, for some added festivity.
I also have used quite a bit of birch up at our cabin. Â My favorite spot is in our dining area.
Just screwing a birch log to the wood board, that we had mortared into the brick wall, was a simple idea that added a little rustic interest to our dining space.
We also collected several long pieces to put in a ceramic container.
Then, we just placed the container behind the love seat to help give height and  fill in the wall space.
Here are some more great pictures for inspiration:
Fill tall glass vases with thin birch logs and top with flowers! Â This image looks perfect for a wedding but depending on the florals used, it could be tailored for home decor.
Here is another simple idea. Â I love the basket!
How about filling an entire fireplace opening? Â Yikes! Â That would be quite a project! Â Pretty cool though.
And finally, here is a unique idea for adding a little wood burning or carving to your display of birch logs.
