Brown Furniture Styling Tips | Our Top 6 Tips to Refresh Dark Woods 2022
The deep brown hue evident in traditional furniture comes through rich timbers of mahogany, cedar, fruitwood, and more.
These woods are present in timber floorboards, rich ceiling beams, doorways, wall panelling, and larger furniture pieces, and the type of wood you select can affect the style, value, and even the quality of the furniture.

🙇♀️❤
Simply GORGEOUS!
Thanks for an interesting and educational video. The run-down of wood types and the chart of tones were helpful. Solid wood is easier to sand and re-stain than pieces with thin veneer. I don’t have any compunctions about painting the latter.
"Grounded by the browns" could be a great heading for this video. As used by one of your commentators below.
🔥🔥🔥 love
Good job as always, thanks ❤️❤️
I love this style. The color palette is what I used in my apartment. It’s very airy yet grounded by the browns. Thank you for this video.
Despite trends, nothing comes close to the richness of quality wood furniture.
Simply beautiful 😍❤
Hope u enjoyed ur vacation. Wishing u best of everything in life ❤
..once I heard in one of these silly TV shows “brown is down” I can’t disagree more. I have beautiful pieces at home, they are classic and timeless. Today’s video is to die for! I love you mentioned the grandfather clocks, I have a French Mobier, gorgeous!
Beautiful video and welcome back 😊
Lovely. Thank you for appreciating wood furniture.
Again, gorgeous photography! Your videos never disappoint!
This Episode is perfect. I guess natural wood delivers to me the welcoming sensation in every room.
I enjoy all of your videos, and this especially. Aside from the educational content, the music, your soothing voice, and the choices of photos is so relaxing to experience. Almost meditative. In a fast paced world, I feel that your method of delivery is so needed. Almost like sitting down with a friend and a pot of tea.
¡Increíblemente hermoso! Uno de mis videos favoritos. Saludos desde Argentina
I couldn’t bring myself to paint over such beautiful furniture unless it was damaged. Love the content of this video, it inspired me to be more creative around these tones. Thank you🙏
💚
I love this video! I have a lot of dark furniture in great condition. Looking forward to trying these looks.
Thanks for sharing! I have a lot of brown furniture that I have had for many years that I love. Lots of new great ideas.
Beautiful! I also love dark rattan, but I have to love it in pictures. It’s too expensive now for regular people to own!
There’s nothing more elegant and organic than the beauty of natural wood and I will never understand painting over it. Save the paint for cheap fake wood or pieces where the wood is damaged. Such a waste of a dwindling commodity.
I waiting for ……thank you xxxx
Luv, luv,luv !!!!!!!!!
Hello my dear friend. Once again, wasn’t connected for some reason. I had left my comments, perhaps you had seen! Lovely and ever so inspiring
Thanks again! 🌹
I weep for the woods ruined by instagram and youtube trends. The only basis for them being painted is the fear of the paintbrush wielder being seen to own anything vaguely yellow, orange or warm toned!!!! I hope Lonefox has the courage to bring warm into vogue. Praying for the antiques!!!!
Wow I love it so amazing very beautiful thanks so much my dear friend
I recall Franco Zeffirelli, film producer, bleaching wood grey with horse urine for a specific grey colour for continuity of colour, etc etc on set. Now we have five coats of bleach painted on wood. More hygienic perhaps. Do we really need to stamp our ego on heritage finds?
Great video…. ‘ cause i love traditional furrniture and antiques. .. as always thanks for the tips…. greetings from sonora mexico
Brown wood does need to be complemented.
Some excellent ideas to liven up the wood.
Lovely to see beautiful furniture pieces incorporated into modern homes some good advice here thank you for sharing Susie XX
Loved video as always
Lovely woods. I love all colors of wood and I had incorporated many of these types and colors into my overall home decor.
Welcome back hope all is well!
I am so happy to see fine furniture featured here. I inherited and have purchased only fine hardwood furniture for my home. It looks fresh on the right surroundings and complimentary fabrics.
Loving your channel and especially this video as I have a home full of dark woods. But I would give my first born child (if I had one) to have that clothespin bench! Can it be purchased somewhere?
This is such a helpful video for giving my traditional style rooms a freshened up look. Thank you
Hi Suzie, so many beautiful things and ideas in this video. I have Georgian style so now I can start mixing a bit more to elevate the look of my rooms. Haven’t seen burl that much lately but I do enjoy the pieces you show in this video. My grandma had this type of wood in her bedroom. As a child a was fascinated by the color and its grain. Thank you !!
Thank you for this interesting video I think its one of your nicest videos along with the traditional English style.
Brilliant styling. Thank you 💐
I am madly in love with this channel!!!! Every video is perfection 🥰❤️
