Authentic And Faux Barnwood Siding
For many of us, owning a house means a lot more to us than just owning a piece of property. It means owning a home, a place where you raise your children, bring your friends, and retreat from the cares of the world. It means making it feel like a place that reflects who you are and what you love, from decorating, to landscaping, to the types of energy you use. Some may love the industrial look, while others may love the rustic look. For this second group, barnwood siding is always a favorite, because it evokes the charm of the rustic look.
In terms of barnwood type exterior house coverings you have two options - authentic and faux. FauxPanels.com offers a beautiful line of faux barnwood siding, made out of polyurethane that costs between $8.50 and $9.00 per square foot. Made both for indoor and outdoor use, these Oxford Rustic Barnwood Artificial Panels come in barnwood grey and barnwood brown, and have interlocking ends that make installation quick and easy. Because they are polyurethane, they don't rust, rot, fade or sag, like traditional wood siding does.
You also have the option of going with real barnwood style siding, which does require maintenance, unlike artificial or faux barnwood. Authentic Barnwood Siding is for the most part reclaimed from old structures and then sold to homeowners and contractors to create an authentic look with authentic wood. This type of home exterior covering is much more expensive, for the simple fact that old, weathered barnwood can't authentically be reproduced - it has to be found and gathered from old buildings and barns and such. ElmwoodReclaimedTimber.com is just one of the many companies that sell authentic, antique barnwood exterior siding which can be used both indoor and outdoor (but which is often best used indoors).

No matter what you choose, faux or authentic, barnwood siding can give your home a look that says it all - rustic, comfortable, weathered - home. When matched with other rustic charms, such as wood barrel flower planters and other small touches, barnwood can really give your home the rustic look you love, the look that makes you feel at home from the cares of the world.
