All About Glam
Glamour is coming back in home decor. Silver and gold accents are cropping up all over the place. These accents add shine and sparkle, and can add punch to a neutral space. Gorgeous accents in chrome, nickle, pewter, gold and mirror can be added to any space to add style and sophistication.
The trick with accents like these is using them sparingly. Too many and the room begins to look gaudy. But, used in moderation they can be real stunners. Take the room above; accents of silver, pewter and mirror bring pop to the otherwise uniform space. The mirror next to the bed reflects light from the silver sconces and chandelier. The pewter shimmery drapes and floor lamp add dimension and texture. Without them the room would not be as interesting.
