11 best live edge wood project ideas

Want to add a rustic touch to your home decor? How about decorating with live edge wood! Here are a ton of live edge wood project ideas!

Live edge wood has been trending in a major way lately – and we totally understand why!

Live edge wood is the term used to describe wood that still has a raw, uncut edge – sometimes with the bark of the tree still attached.

This is unique because instead of being flat and straight, these boards have a softer, and more organic shape.

It has an almost unfinished look – in a really cool and unique way.

Incorporating live edge wood into a variety of styles can enhance a rustic feel or tone down a modern feel.

Live edge wood projects can range from very difficult to very simple, depending on if you’re doing something like shelves versus an epoxy resin river table.

Today we are excited to share some of our favorite DIY live edge wood project ideas!
