Few can argue with the decorative appeal of copper. Copper looks beautiful, and the rich colors inherent in copper products often deepen with age. The question you may be asking, however, is what is the best way to get copper into my home? Even if you’re not ready to put in a copper bathtub or sink, there are some great ways to get copper into every room in your house if you’re so inclined.

The bathroom

These seemingly small additions can make a world of difference in your bathroom. Some of the things to think about include:

Copper towel bars: These don’t just add a functional upgrade to your bathroom; but also look amazing. The warm tones of the copper and the unique character give a luxurious look. They also provide a convenient place to hang towels and act as an eye-catching focal point. Choose from sleek and minimalistic designs or something a little more ornate and decorative, and add a touch of sophistication to your bathroom. 

Copper towel rings: If your bathroom is on a smaller size, you can still bring in the beauty and luxuriousness of copper through copper towel rings. These compact features add to both the convenience and aesthetics of your bathroom. Place a copper towel ring near your sink, shower, or bathtub so that your towels are easily accessible.

Mirrors and frames: Look at using mirrors with copper frames to add a touch of elegance to your bathroom. The rich hues can create a warm and spa-like atmosphere and tie all the design elements together.

The dining room

As well as adding warmth and intimacy with a copper lighting fixture in your dining room, you could also consider using copper table accessories, such as candle holders, napkin rings, and chargers. These will add elegance and create visual interest, elevating the overall look of your dining table. Thanks to the rich hues and the natural shine of copper, it will complement almost any color scheme or style, from pastel shades to rich, earthy tones. You can also use copper tableware, including flatware, serving utensils, and even cookware and cutlery, to add a touch of opulence to your table.

Use a copper bar cart in your dining room if the space allows. Not only do these look great, but they are ideal for storing or displaying glassware and decanters and useful when serving multiple guests. The reflective surface of copper adds a subtle yet glamorous touch.

If you want something a little more subtle, copper lighting fixtures are a good option. You want your bedroom to feel like a space for relaxation and rejuvenation, and there is no better way to do it than by adding the soft, warm glow of copper lighting, whether through pendant lights, wall sconces, or bedside table lamps.

Complete the cozy look of your bedroom with copper decorative accents such as curtain rods, drawer handles, and decorative hooks. While seemingly small, these fixtures can have a big impact, creating a luxurious and cohesive feel in your bedroom.

The kitchen

Outdoors

Why just stick to using copper indoors? Extend the luxury into your outdoor living space through accent pieces like lanterns, fire pits, and sculptures made from copper.

The Bathroom

Copper is perfect for the bathroom, as it has antibacterial qualities as well as being beautiful. If you’re not quite ready to commit to a copper tub, why not start with a copper towel bar or copper towel rings? These fixtures are a great way to add a touch of old-world elegance to your bathroom while also making it feel more sanitary.

The Dining Room

Where can you get copper into the dining room? Why not a copper light fixture? A beautiful copper light fixture right over the dining table can have the same effect as an eye-catching centerpiece. The dining room is a perfect place for the understated beauty that is a copper light fixture.

The Bedroom

Where does copper fit into the bedroom? How about an elegant copper mirror? A copper mirror is a great way to add just a hint of copper to the room, accenting a piece that you’ll look at every day when you wake up and every night before you go to sleep.
