So lately I have been obsessing about copper and everything about it! (Not a clue why) I just find the colour is great for any time of year! It is a warm household shade for the winter months but also flourishes in the sunlight!
If I could I would make anything and everything in my house copper at the minute, I just love the way it looks. It has a classic yet contemporary feel to it.
Whilst scanning through Pinterest and a variety of homeware stores such as Oliver Bonas, I have been inspired to up cycle current items in order to fit with my new obsession.
I would like to share with you a couple of my Copper inspired DIY projects with you and talk you through how I achieved the look.
- The letters!
As you can see the letters just started off as a distressed chrome and to be honest I loved the way they looked but found that they did not stand out very well against the grey wall. So therefore copper was the best way forward!
Firstly I placed the letters Face up on paper, this was in order to protect the table beneath. I sprayed everything outdoors to keep the fumes down.
I gave the letters a generous coating of the spray to make sure it was evenly distributed, and then panicked thinking it would dry all blotchy and runny. Nevertheless i persevered with the hopes tbhey would dry evenly.
so there you go, an easy step by step guide to update and modernise anything in your home and the cost of a can a spray paint.
I hope you enjoyed this DIY blog post and hope that you stick with me for future posts.
Thanks -
Treat yourself
