A New Rainbow of Color This Spring – Redecorating with Glass
Add a little life to your cupboards and drawers this spring with new glass knobs and pulls. Transform your kitchen from bland to beautiful by replacing that old and worn hardware with wonderful replacements in glass and crystal. The possibilities are limitless this year with a wide spectrum of glass shapes and colors available for the home (or office). Try adding something unique to your home this year during your spring cleaning and redecorating projects!
Nothing says dull like scratched and worn knobs and pulls on any piece of furniture. The small details make the biggest impact sometimes and this is especially true when it comes to hardware. Knobs and pulls are not only a focal point of design; they are also one of the most used items in the home. Think of how many times you open the drawers and cabinets in your bathroom, kitchen and bedroom.
Try adding a little pizzazz to your cupboards with exciting ruby red knobs or introduce a little color into the bathroom with beautiful emerald green knobs. Create a theme in a nursery with baby pink or blue pulls for the dresser. The opportunities to make your home reflect your unique personality are just waiting to be used. Glass comes in a variety of shapes from the traditional hexagon to ornate swirl glass knobs. Fitting well in homes that range from classic Victorian themes to contemporary Manhattan apartments – glass is quickly becoming one of the most stylish ways to update the home.
Take your new decorating style one step further by adding wonderful crystal doorknob sets throughout the home. This can quickly create a uniformed look throughout the entire home. Glass stands out against wood (or metal) doors and offers an extra touch of elegance. Try updating your curtain tie backs with exotic pressed glass patterns to bring the look of glass even further into the room.
Although glass can break more easily than other materials (such as brass, iron, steel, etc.) it is extremely durable and does not show signs of wear and tear as easily over time. When properly installed, glass knobs and pulls will work as efficiently as standard metal knobs. LookInTheAttic & Company offers a great selection of glass hardware ranging from cabinet knobs to robe hooks. Try something new this year and make your house the beautiful home of your dreams.
Solid Brass Towel Bars and Bathroom Accessories
Redecorating a bathroom can be a time consuming process and it is sometimes easy to overlook the basic hardware in this room. Solid brass towel bars and other bathroom accessories are a great choice not only because of the inherent durability and strength brass provides but the elegant patterns that can be easily incorporated into any decorating scheme. Solid brass hardware is available in a variety of finishes and designs ranging from traditional roped patters to ornate fleur de lis.
Towel bars are an important aspect of any bathroom and a focal point of your design (especially in guest bathrooms where towels are frequently displayed). A solid brass towel bar with an elegant pattern can add a little extra detail to your bathrooms without overpowering your design. Towel bars come in single, double and triple configurations and are available in several sizes (usually 18, 24 and 30 inches although other sizes may be available).
When deciding on new bathroom hardware remember that attention to small details can create a common theme throughout your entire room. Choose coordinating robe hooks, soap dishes, grab bars, towel rings, shelves and hinges to complete the look. By using the same finish that is on your faucets you can tie the look together even further. Solid brass doorknob sets and lighting fixtures are also available and in similar patterns as well. The bathroom may be one of the smaller rooms in your home but there are a lot of ways to make it beautiful and unique.
LookInTheAttic & Company offers a wide selection of solid brass towel bars and other bath hardware. Ask questions if you are unsure about a particular item and see if entire sets are available. Remember that by choosing a common pattern you will be able to coordinate the room easily.
