Shine On! 12 Ways to Decorate With Copper

Thanks to the good old Moscow Mule mug, copper colored accessories, dishes, and home accessories are making their way around Pinterest. I for one, could not be more excited! Copper is a really great way to add shine and pizazz to any room from the kitchen to the bedroom, and it looks a lot more expensive than it really is!

Add piece of copper in your living room with a shelving unit, or a copper lamp shade. Spray paint your existing shelving unit and lamps for quick upgrade! You’ll love how they look! From Better Homes and Gardens.

Sometimes, less is more! Dress up an existing glass vase with copper polka-dots. Use a “paint dauber” to make sure that all of the polka dots are the same size. See how they did it here!

Decorate any wall of your home with copper wallpaper! There are several different kinds available, but I really like this kind, found on Etsy!  Tape your polka dots to the wall before you actually stick them on, as this will prevent you from making any design mistakes!
