Adding a pop of colour to a room can get out of hand, especially if you really, REALLY like that colour. No, there’s nothing wrong with having a room decorated in different shades of mint green, but if you want to draw your eyes to a particular mint green item, it will get lost if the wall, carpet and sofas are of varying tones of mint green. We’ll stop saying mint green now. Today we’re concentrating on different ways of adding brass (or gold) to your home; some may surprise you, but we love every single idea.
Details
1. Add gold to parts of furniture. This chest of drawers has the top and its legs covered with gold paint, and the handles have also been chosen in gold.

2. We love this sideboard. The dark wood looks amazing when contrasting with the gold geometric shape. There are stencils and tapes you can source to get the same effect.

3. You can match all the taps in the bathroom and make them brass. The light has also been chosen in that colour.

4. Maybe you just choose the bed.

6. Or the drinks cart. The ice cooler is in the shape of a pineapple! And there are golden accents on the accessories, such as the shaker, the measuring cups and the tops of the glasses.

7. Choose a wall and dress it with brass-coloured pots.

6. For a bit of a quieter statement, lower the gold to underneath eye level.

7. And if you have cracks in the wall? No problem! Show them love with gold.

8. Somehow, this wall in the bathroom feels like it should be a tad OTT, but it works! Perhaps because the floor and the bath are dark.
