Outback Shack Decorating Ideas

Give your outdoor shed the feel of Australia's Outback.


If you want to bring the spirit of Australia's Outback into your backyard, consider setting up an "outback shack." This can be a small, rustic cottage that is decorated with Australia-themed decor. You can use the cottage as a place to entertain guests, as a studio or office, or even as a shed for extra storage. Does this Spark an idea?


Boomerang


Purchase an authentic, hand-carved, hand-painted boomerang from Australia. If you have the budget, then purchase several boomerangs. Hang them on the walls of your outback shack. Another option is to place the boomerangs in shadow boxes and then hang the boxes on the wall.


Australian Photographs


Purchase photographs of Australian scenes or people from an art website or from a local photographer. Have the photographs matted and framed so that they are ready for hanging. Consider purchasing one large photograph of a scene from Australia or grouping a trio of related photographs on a wall.


Sheepskin Rug


Purchase a large sheepskin rug for your outback shack. Sheepskin rugs are a common product in Australia and New Zealand because of the sheep and wool industry. Lay a sheepskin rug across your one-room outback shack. Ask guests to take off their shoes before entering the shack so that they can let their feet relax on the soft rug.
