Live edge wood projects bring the wild look of nature into the civilized world of the home. Live edge riffs on the idea of contrasts: nature's gnarled and chaotic beauty against human-created smooth surfaces.
Live edge wood projects range from coffee tables, side tables, and patio tables to more unusual items like fireplace mantels, bathroom counters, and even a bedside table that hangs from the ceiling.
What Is Live Edge Woodworking?
Live edge is a popular style that incorporates at least one natural edge or plane of the wood's surface: wormholes, bark, wood grain, and all. The remaining sides are milled down to straight edges or planes.
