In recent years, the way that “farmhouse chic” interior decor aesthetics has trended has been a beautiful thing to see. Besides being rather pleasing to the eye with all those natural materials and calming neutral hues, farmhouse inspired decor often involves a great deal of reclaimed and upcycled materials, which is very environmentally friendly. Additionally, many of the very best rustic looking or farmhouse chic home decor pieces we’ve ever seen have been entirely handmade. That’s why, when we overhauled a few rooms in our house and opted to make them even more naturally rustic looking than they already were, we decided not only that we were in need of a few beautiful new farmhouse style mirrors, but also that we wanted to make them ourselves.
