If I remember tonight I’ll post a pic of the facade I built for my farm house. Just one lonely wall but it looks nice. For now I’ll fill you in on a little secret that I’ve hardly utilized since I don’t build much with wood:
If wood is the dominant texture of a build/feature, certain other blocks of the same color can visually pass as wood. Especially so with realistic wood colors like dark mustard, but I’ve found it to work with other colors. Meta stones look like weathered (or just less perfectly cut) lustrous wood in the right context, for instance. Allows for a lot more creativity.
Added reference for meta stones-
