Crushin' on copper

Long gone are the days when I head straight to the dresses section of House of Fraser, instead you can find me wandering around their homeware section, creating mood boards in my mind and trying to decide (for the fifteenth time that month) what style of accessories to choose for my bedroom makeover. It's not that I don't like the dresses (I do, and could easily spend hours in the fitting rooms twirling in front of the mirror), but there's just something satisfying about dressing a room instead.

Copper seems to be the latest trend popping up on the interior blogs that I follow, and I can't help but feel the love for it too. Gold is far too bling (just don't tell my flat mate that, as he's recently painted his bedroom wall gold!), silver seems plain, and rose gold is slightly over done now so it's no surprise that people are making a beeline for copper.

I've picked out some of my favourite pieces, and who knows, maybe I'll settle on a copper themed bedroom...



GLASS CEILING PENDANT | ANTIQUE COPPER JEWELLERY BOX | THREE COPPER BOWLS | COPPER GLOBE LANTERN | COPPER TABLE LAMP
 
001. Words cannot describe how much I love this glass ceiling pendant. It's such a classic piece, yet at the same time looks modern and perfectly on-trend. I'm picturing it hanging low with a vintage edison style bulb fitted.

002. I already have some copper pentagon shaped boxes that I store my jewellery in, but love the look of this larger jewellery box too. I can't help but feel that something similar could be found at a car boot sale or a charity shop for a fraction of the price though...

003. These little copper bowls would be the perfect addition to my dressing table for storing bits and pieces like kirby grips, lip balms and jewellery that usually end up misplaced when I take them off at the end of the day.

004. My flat has lots of lanterns dotted around, but one more wouldn't hurt, especially this copper globe lantern. I love the mixed materials of polished and antique copper, and the way that the tea light hangs.

005. You're probably noticing a bit of a theme here! It's no secret that I'm a big fan of lighting. This table lamp is stunning and would add a bit of luxe to any room.

    Ah I love copper too! I found some lovely copper cake stands in Tiger the other week, and have also picked up some copper fairy lights from Primark for our room - they're so pretty! I've now got my hands on some copper spray too, am going to try my hand at some DIY bits to add more to our flat :) xx
