Wonderful wood!

Wood is one of those elements that are so versatile in its many tones and finishes. For example, it can bring warmth to a dark kitchen or a rustic feel to a modern space. You can mix wood types and finishes within the same room to add interest and texture. Following are a few ways to add wonderful wood to your world.
