rustic Christmas basement

Christmas has arrived in our BASEMENT! And this is actually an area of our home you have NEVER seen. I am soooo excited to share it with you, because it is one of my favorite areas. So much love went into designing this area, and I am so happy with how it turned out.

I hope you enjoy the pictures this Christmas season!  I will share more details soon about the materials used, etc… in a separate post, but today- it is about about the season!

I also want to add that we are in KY, and hunting is a huge part of life. My husband is a hunter, so you will see lots of animals. Please understand and know that ahead of time.

As you head down the stairs, the first thing you see is this super gorgeous sign from Decor Steals!!!

most wonderful time of the year sign

As you turn the corner, this little set up meets your eye.

And here is the FULL view 🙂

This is the next view as you head into the main area.

I love this rustic tree! It is also the only tree with zero ribbon, besides the PLAYROOM TREE. Also, that flooring is the same flooring (just different color) as our main living area and upstairs! You can find ALL INFO HERE!

This is the view from the tree! The ceiling is one of my fave parts of this room! We left it open and blacked it out and used edison lights around the entire area. It gives it a very neat vibe.

Isn’t that rustic tin amazing??? Brandon did alllll of that himself. I will be sure to provide a tutorial SOON!

I grabbed these fabulous metal trees while we were in Wisconsin for the RE-FABBED CHRISTMAS MAKEOVER!

I have had this piece of furniture for YEARS! I bought it from Facebook!

Here is the view as you exit out towards the steps!

Of course there are some other parts of this basement, but this is the main living area! We also have a spare bedroom and a bathroom down there (I will share the bathroom soon), as well as some storage areas and a safe room.

I hope you enjoyed the tour of our basement!

    I love it! So cool, even without the Christmas decorations. My hubby is also a big hunter (here in WI) so we have mounts around too. Made me laugh at your disclaimer. Thanks for sharing your space!

    Your basement is beautiful! I love the rustic tin. Most think they have to have fancy smancy furniture and lots of “stuff “. But I like simple warm welcoming rooms.

    Brooke your Basement is Beautiful. I’m glad that you have the mounted Deer heads there. I have seen so many ladies say no way are they going to let their husband have deer heads in their house. You just decorated around them. Girl you got it going on!!! Keep up the Great Decorating that you do. Love Ya!!! MARILYN

    Just love all of it. My dad was a hunter, Africa 3 times, so we had all types of animals, even rugs…
    I ???? your tree, & the tin! The open ceiling, the floor. I liked the stair railings in a pail next to a sort of Charlie Brown tree. How fun. Your tin trees are gorgeous ????.
    Your signs are awesome.
    So many beautiful things throughout your home, inside & out!
    When you are in the living room, I really love the barn doors that slide, those are so unique.

    Oh my gosh, I LOVE this. Rustic elegance at its finest! The flocked stick bundle – who would have thunk it? Brooke, that’s who!! Can’t wait for the tutorial on the rusty metal, we are wanting to do that in my hubby’s shop! Your basement is a wildlife wonder and rustic dream! As we redo our basement, I will definitely be pulling some inspiration from this post. Thanks for sharing, Brooke, you know I love everything you do! Continue to be blessed.

    Would love to know where the corrugated metal on the bottom of the wall came from. This has been a vision for our basement for years. We are now getting ready to start the project. Any information will be much appreciated!
