Hey guess what? It's almost fall! And I can't wait to head on up to my cabin in the Georgia mountains! Okay, no... sorry, I do not actually have a cabin anywhere. I don't even own my own house. BUT! If I did, I can assure you it would be super-deluxe modern and an anti-cabin cabin.
I ain't got nothin' against log cabins, but with all that wood present I would need healthy doses of metal, leather, fur and oriental accents. I believe the key to a fresh and modern cabin is to play around with the unexpected and to have a sense of humor about it all. Word. — Jenny from My Favorite and My Best

I recently saw an image of a dark and moody log cabin with complete minimal decor and a black leather Togo sectional. In a million years I wouldn't have thought about that as a success story, but it so, so was. This is my take on that design.

While a real-life leather Togo sectional will set you back about six thousand dollars, this IKEA sofa keeps things ridiculously affordable. Comes in dark brown too. They claim the leather ages beautifully... that would be a first for IKEA.

Simple, modern lines, weathered wood and metal make this a perfect cabin coffee table option — plus, it's a huge square beast. Pile it with books, freshly cut greenery and settle down with some hot chocolate and/or wine. (Wine.)

If you're gonna do 1 thing to keep your cabin from being too cabiny..this is it! A sexy brass Tom Dixon pendant. The fact that it looks like a beehive sort of kind of does not go unnoticed by me.

A vintage blanket with bright, poppy colors. I would use these in all the bedrooms.

Ah, the perfect foil to all that wood and leather.

Another tip to keep your cabin on the modern side is to use bold graphics — specifically, black and white. This rug is brand new from Crate and Barrel. Totally affordable and totally chic. This, good lighting and comfy seating are really all you need.

If your surrounding area is more "shack off the interstate" than cabin nestled in the wilderness, fret not! Light up a candle that smells like the woods or the forest floor. This one smells like moss — not mouses. Ew.

Going blackberry picking? Everybody needs somethin' to put their berries in. Or apples. Or mushrooms (what? you don't forage for mushrooms?) or sticks for kindling, right? This one is stylish enough to wear or display.

Go for sleek and modern shelves for all your Fishing for Dummies books.

Yes, a cabin cookbook, full of cabin-style meals like Slow Cooked Squirrel and Scrapple (look it up). Actually, there's nothing weird in this cookbook. Instead, you'll find Overnight Caramel Rolls (yes please) and Grilled Meatloaf (yum yum).

| I love this with all of my heart and soul. It's just a big ol' soup pot, but it makes my chili makin' hand start to twitch a little. |

While I totally get that this looks EXACTLY like a shmoo (look it up), it also looks majorly comfortable and in your cabin that is pretty much all you want. I know my own 6-year-old daughter would probably be more excited about being reunited with this thing than the actual woods surrounding the cabin.

This Etsy seller has a great selection of nature-themed oil paintings. They aren't super serious but they are really good.

How cool is this thing?! This absolutely, 100 percent should be used in a minimal type of decor situation. It could easily go way too "Gilligan's Island" if you're not careful. I would put it on a desk with a few books, a propped painting and a plant — that is all.

Paper maché animal heads are a lot more awesome and un-scary than real animal heads. Perfect cabin decor without the cold dead eyes following you around.

jrills Ahh, by far my favorite contributor of all times! You're commentary rivals the awesomeness of a hedgehog bottle opener. And I also forage for mushrooms

newmouse I love it all. But here in Texas the daily highs are at least 100 degrees. I'm dreaming of a chill in the air.
