Rustic touches are a pretty big trend in design right now. Products using natural materials, such as birch bark and carved wood can be found everywhere. But as far as recreation of nature’s simplistic beauty, I love these two products for adorning the home to give it a primitive, but elegant touch. Just enough to make it look cozy. 

The Graphite Writing Sculptures by San Francisco artist Agelio Batle are beautiful and practical (my favorite combination). These sculptural beauties are made of real graphite that write like pencils and they can double as an eye-pleasing paperweight. They are available in three different versions: morel mushroom, olive branch and a leaf.

The second rusticly-wonderful pick is this Bird Jewelry Holder from Pottery Barn. Typically I don’t shop at PB but as I was browsing through their catalog, this really caught my eye. I love the idea of putting the day’s jewelry to rest on this cast aluminum creation. And what a bargain at only $19.

There is alot more out there in the way of rustic accents that you can add to your interior spaces. Keep an open mind and look for clean and simple forms made of uncomplicated materials and you can do no wrong. Our Earth is the ultimate creator of beauty!
