Snow in Texas!

Ok everybody its official we have had our first snowfall for the year! That is a huge deal because it’s Texas and we never get snow! All of the Rustic Furniture Pro team members had fun enjoying snow for a day. Another exciting part about the recent snow is the fact that it was my puppies’ first experience in the snow. Don’t worry I will be sharing photos for sure!

Since many of you readers out there are very familiar with snow and lots of it, I thought it would be fun to share with you what Texas snowfalls are like.

Here are some funny facts about snow in Texas.

Weatherman Freak-out

If we are expecting even the tiniest, shortest snow flurry, the meteorologists instantly begin freaking out. Suddenly the only thing on TV is weathermen warning us of the inch of snow we may or may not get. This may seem boring to watch, but everyone (me included) becomes addicted when Texas is getting snow.  

Dallas Becomes a Ski Town

When the temperatures drop below 50 degrees Dallas suddenly starts resembling a ski town, without the mountains, piles of snow and pine trees of course. Everyone starts busting out their ski clothes to brave the cold weather.

Closings

When the snow starts barely falling everything starts closing. From schools to businesses to church events, the city shuts down. Of course we don’t really complain about this, because who doesn’t want a “snow day”!

Snowmen Pop Up

One of my favorite parts of getting snow in Texas is the snowmen that start popping up everyone’s front yards. What is great about these snow men is that it takes all of the snow in the yard to make one. So you have this small snowmen surrounded by grass.  

Roaring Fires

When temperatures drop below 50 everyone starts their fires to stay warm.

It’s time to Ice skate

Then there is the ice skating. As a little girl my sisters and I used to hose down our concrete patio and try skating on it. Obviously we never got the ice thick enough to use real ice skates so our shoes had to work instead.

Well, I hope you enjoyed some fun facts about Texas snow days from Rustic Furniture Pro. I also hope you like the pictures of my pug pups in the snow. They absolutely loved the snow. It was precious to see them bury their faces in the snow and also try to eat snowflakes right out of the sky.

Hopefully we will have some more snow days here in Texas this year, but for now we will have to wait and see!

Pug Pups First Snow

I love easy decorating tips. It’s the perfect way to spice up your home without dipping into your wallet too much. So, I always hunt around – blogs, friends’ homes, magazines – and that’s where I get most of my ideas.

The term decorating can be a scary word for some people. But, think of it as just adding some personal touches to your home, and it isn’t quite so scary. Take time before you start decorating to think about what you want.

Do you want your rustic tables to be modern, western, simple, ornate… the options are endless! Here is the coolest idea I have seen in a while. In Atlanta Georgia, there is a group of chefs and winos known as the FourCoursemen. Talk about creative and innovative. Go to their website and learn all about them. They don’t cook the same thing twice and they eat local. They also have quite a few cool ideas for décor on their blog!

They were featured in Food & Wine with what I think is one of the most creative table runners I have ever seen, and it’s something I am considering doing for my family Thanksgiving. It’s simple and cheap.

The table runner for your rustic table setting will be made of… PAPER! How fun is that? You’re sure to have all of your guests talking. Buy a sheet of paper long enough to span the length of your table. You can cut it to the exact width you want for the runner. Now, here’s the fun part: grab some brown Dr. Ph. Martin’s Bombay India ink (only $3 at dickblick.com) and get creative. You are the artist for this runner. My sister is the artist in our family, so I plan on getting her help when I make my runner. (see the final product here!)

See how simple this style tip is? It isn’t expensive and it can turn your tablescape into the talk of the party. I appreciate the FourCoursemen’s design and chef know-how… now, if I could just make this recipe of theirs: Spiced Banana Chocolate Ice Cream Bar w/ Coffee Dust, Oatmeal Cookie Fingers, Fruit Coulis! Rustic tables, homemade runners, great food – sounds like a fabulous party to me!

Rustic Teak Furniture Sample

At Rustic Furniture Pro, we believe in quality above all else. As our customer, you can always rest assured that we stand behind each piece that leaves our warehouse.

Quality is the reason we chose to enter the teak furnishings business in the first place. If you don’t know much about teak, today’s blog will be a crash course.

Teak is a long-lasting and durable wood, and nearly all of the world’s supply is from Southeast Asia.

Teak is extremely hard and dense, allowing for an amazing longevity. Our personal use of reclaimed teakwood speaks to this longevity.

Take a look at the Dakota Wheel Bench. The wheel was utilized in farming practices for generations before it ever became furniture. That is quite a long life for a piece of wood!

Teak is also naturally water-resistant, the chief reason why it’s ideal for outdoor furnishings. Another reason it is a match for nature’s elements is its pest-resistant qualities. Teak’s natural oils even keep the pestiest pests, termites, away!

What consistently amazes our team at Rustic Furniture Pro is this: not only is teak durable, long-lasting and water- and pest-resistant, it is absolutely gorgeous! Teak is a beautiful addition to any space, and we feel honored to create furniture out of such a quality, environmentally-friendly product.

Mirror, mirror on the wall, you’re the fairest of them all! Rustic Furniture Pro’s latest line of mirrors is sure to transform any wall into a work of art. Whether you choose the Nestling, Hill Country or Cripple Creek mirrors, these pieces will add a touch of nature and warmth to your home.

While you are revamping your walls, take time to browse the other accessories we offer. Bring the outdoors into your home with the Welton Screen, a piece which is not only functional but is beautifully crafted. This screen certainly isn’t limited to the rustic or lodge style home; modern or classically styled, this piece is ideal for any setting.

And don’t forget the outdoors when you are accessorizing. Add interest to your gardens with a freestanding Rustic Spring Cross. Also, our planters will allow your garden to seamlessly flow into any outdoor living space. Consider the Four Bucket Planter & Trough or the Hub Flower Stand. A splash of colorful flowers or fresh greenery may be the final touch for your yard.

Most importantly, have fun as you personalize your home. Creating a haven for you, your family and your friends can be an exciting venture, and we are excited to work alongside you!

Spring has sprung and summer is right around the corner! It’s time to drink your morning coffee on your back porch, enjoy the fresh flowers in your beautiful garden, read a book under the shade of an oak tree and spend time watching the kids play in the yard.

As always, Rustic Furniture Pro is your source for outdoor teak furniture. Our unique benches, rocking chairs and loungers will liven up your yard, making it the perfect springtime getaway.

Enjoy a peaceful morning watching the sunrise on your porch while relaxing in our ever popular and comfortable Sweetwater Rocking Chair. Also, our Hub Flower Stand will add the right amount of color and grace to any sitting area.

Revamp the look and feel of your garden by adding a unique bench like the Crescent or Bent Bo Bench. The sizes of these benches offer you easy mobility for any of your outdoor seating arrangement needs.

Of course, your springtime backyard wouldn’t be complete without a barbecue. Invite friends and family over for some good old fashioned outdoor dining. Serve your dinner and fixins on the eye-catching Windriver Table or cool off with your friends around the Aspen Hub Bistro Table.

Finally, sip on a glass of cold lemonade in the shade of your own backyard. Our Blackwater Bench beautifully wraps around trees, creating not only comfortable seating but also a focal point for your outdoor areas.

You will notice that our handcrafted teak furniture is the largest selection on our website. Rustic teak furniture is our specialty.

Teak is one of the strongest dense woods available so it can easily be used both indoors and outdoors. Each of our pieces of teak furniture are handcrafted. Not only are they handmade, but each piece includes restored teak such as old farming implements like wagon wheels, plow handles, feeding troughs, ox bows, well buckets, barn wood, etc. So each piece of Rustic Furniture Pro furniture includes a bit of history in its craftsmanship. 

Our Rustic Chairs selection includes dining chairs, arm chairs, side chairs, accent chairs, rocking chairs,  Adirondack chairs, tall back chairs, and upholstered chairs, reclines and loungers. If you are looking for rustic chairs of any type, this is a great place to start. 

Our Rustic Benches are also offered in a wide variety of options and styles. We carry long multi-person benches perfect for back porches. Our Bardean Benches were designed for our Bardean Table but each can be a stand along piece as well. Our other benches come in all different shapes and sizes. There are one person benches, two person benches, three person benches, and four person benches to meet your personal needs. Then of course we have a nice selection of wagon wheel benches for those of you looking for a western feel. Lastly we offer some smaller crescent shaped benches which a perfect accents to our round wagon wheel tables. You can mix and match these benches to your liking.

Next you will find our Coffee and End Tables which also come in various styles and shapes. Our tables ranch from very rustic and rugged to sleek and round.  We even offer and end table and coffee table made from old teak roots that have been dug up and refinished into tables. Each of these pieces are one-of-a-kind and absolutely stunning. And once again you will see a variety of wagon wheel coffee tables.
