We all have one of those friends who have that “magical eye” for interior decorating. You know the type — their homes or offices have just the right thing in the right place to make the space feel both inviting and complete.
Then there are folks like us who, try as we might, struggle with figuring it out. Maybe we put a vase on a shelf crowded with books when it should be on an entry table filled with seasonal flowers.
Listen, nobody’s perfect, and not all of us can match form with fashion to make visitors go wobbly in the knees when they walk through the door.
But, we over at Biro & Sons have some ideas about how you can add classic pieces of silver to your space to make it feel stylish and timeless.
#1. The Piece & The Room
First off, take inventory. What do you have that you absolutely LOVE and want to show off? Candelabras, candlesticks, silver frames, vases, holloware?
Second, look around. What room are we talking about? Entryway? Dining room? Den? Office? While you can have some fun adding a classic heirloom to an office, placing a candelabra on a desk is going to be a bit off.
We love to see candelabras on tables, shelves, or mantels. Your antique hollowware would be amazing in a dining room hutch that has glass front doors.
What about that heirloom tool that dates back generations? Adding that to an office, meeting room, or den adds a touch of character and is a definite conversation starter.
