Live Edge Wood: What It Is and How to Use It in Your Home


Have you ever wanted to bring a touch of nature into your home? If so, then live edge wood might be just what you're looking for. This unique and beautiful material can add warmth, character, and a sense of connection to the natural world in any space. 

In this blog post, we'll explore what live edge wood is and how you can use it in your home to create a stunning and inviting environment. We’ll also introduce you to Timber Reflections’ stunning collection of live edge tables and charcuterie boards. These products are crafted with precision and passion in Lynden, Ontario, Canada.

What is Live Edge Wood?

Live edge wood is a type of lumber that has been cut from a tree with the natural edge of the wood left intact. Unlike traditional lumber, which is cut into precise, straight-edged boards, live edge wood retains the organic shape of the tree it came from. This means that the edges of the wood follow the natural contours of the tree, including the bark and any irregularities in the wood grain.
