Natural reclaimed wood is the process of using old wood for new projects. The wood often comes from old barns, wine casks, shipping crates, and boats that are no longer needed or have been torn down. Not only is this design beautiful, but it also saves energy and helps us avoid cutting down more trees than necessary. In fact, using reclaimed wood to create flooring takes about 10 times less energy than using freshly cut trees.
One of the many benefits of reclaimed wood is its strength and durability. Before it made its way into your home, it braved the elements for years and expanded and contracted until it settled into its current shape. You can rely on your floors or furniture to last for years and without being gentle with it at the beginning.
Everyone is looking to be more eco-friendly, and why should that search stop at your tables? Reclaimed wood tables are environmentally friendly tables made easy. A popular item that would look beautiful in any part of the house is t Continue reading

And while new wood has its uses and value, and while wood is in some ways a renewable resource, this young wood is not renewable in the amounts that we use. That is just one reason that reclaimed wood is superior to new wood as a choice for rustic furniture, solid wood table tops, and a variety of other applications.
