Guest Picks: Faux Bamboo Furniture
20 Ways to Use a Little or a Lot of This Popular Look Around the Home
Let's just say I never met a piece of faux bamboo furniture I didn't like. The lines and texture are a great way to establish an eclectic look without going too far out of the box. There's been a resurgence of faux bamboo pieces on the market lately and I'm having to put limits on myself to one piece of faux bamboo furniture per room! Here are a few of my favorites. — Caitlin from Caitlin Creer Interiors

I love this take on a Chinese Chippendale chair, and the color just gives it a little extra spunk. I'd love these as host and hostess chairs at a dining table, flanking a console table, or as a sassy desk chair.

This bench is the perfect little accent piece to add some summer style to your room. It's a great way to incorporate the bamboo look without being over the top, and it's simple enough that it won't distract from other elements in the room.

This is the dining table of my dreams. It would look great paired with some upholstered chairs in a vibrant fabric. This piece has amazing detailing on it that echoes back to the Palm Beach style of the 1970s.

This piece would be perfect for an entry or even as a nightstand. I'd change out the knobs for something sweet and colorful. Plus, you've got to love all the storage it provides.

I have this piece in my own house and I get compliments on it every time someone walks through the door. Great for an entryway or even paired with a simple bathroom vanity, this is definitely a piece that makes a statement.

I love the classic lines of this bed from Redford House and the British colonial feel that it has. This piece also comes in a variety of finishes so you can customize it.

This table would probably be more in the rattan family than faux bamboo, but I love it because of its proportions. A great size for an end table or accent piece.

You can even get the faux bamboo look on your upholstered pieces. I love the creamy blue in this modern take by Annette Tatum.

I've been waiting to use this piece for a client for a long time. I'd love to see a pair of these at the foot of a bed, or flanking a big armoire.

I used these nesting tables in a project a few years ago and I still haven't gotten tired of them. A great price for the set. I love using nesting tables in big family rooms so they can be used for a drink or impromptu snack. The color of these in person is beautiful too.

I have this mirror in my bedroom and I love the mix of the bone with the faux bamboo look. The coloring and texture are just beautiful, and it's a great natural way to incorporate the bamboo trend.

Pictures do not do this dresser justice! The intricate detailing of this piece is exquisite, and although the price is a little scary, this is sure to be an heirloom piece for years to come. The marble top only adds to the sophistication. This would be a beautiful entry piece to show off to all your friends.

| I love the way the cerused oak puts a different spin on the bamboo style. This media piece would spruce up any room, and I love how the little shelf could also be used to display books and knickknacks. |

My philosophy is that every room has a place for a garden stool. The bamboo detailing on this is subtle, so it doesn't overwhelm the piece. This little stool could work in any room!

The lines on this bookcase are so elegant. I used this in a project last year and I was so impressed with the look for a great price. The perfect place to display your most beautiful things — and this would make great bathroom storage too!

Can I just say, this Oly Studio Willa Bed is the bed of my dreams — I'm not kidding. The upholstered headboard softens the whole bamboo look in a modern way and brings in some texture and interest. I think this is worthy of a master bedroom or a very lucky little girl!

Another favorite of mine. I love the color and scale of this table. I think these would make dreamy nightstands, or would be nice paired with a large sofa as an end table. I just used this for a client and we were both salivating when it arrived!

To me, this is the perfect example of stylish storage! This is constructed of alder wood so you know it will last you for years to come, and I love the bamboo details on the handles too. Not only would this make a great nightstand, but you could also use it as an end table.
