IT’S ALL IN ROOM ACCESSORIES
Perhaps you love marble but feel as though placing huge slabs of it throughout
your house is far too drastic and cumbersome.
Instead, opt to accessorize with marble. End-table marble lamps in your kids
bedroom, master bedroom or family living space gives a wonderful touch of stone
without being overly domineering. It is a more subtle way to introduce marble
into your interior design without committing to a lot of marble.
Some common marble showpieces are:
■ Tray for perfume and/or fun children’s accessories
■ Desk file folder holder
■ Vase & candle pillar
■ Floating kids book shelf
■ End coffee table
■ Wall clock in the family room
Marble is making
huge strides
in the interior
design world
and is becoming
more popular
than ever
before.
■ Coasters
Perhaps you are craving the ambiance that marble exudes and the durability it has
but are not exactly in the market to indulge in such a huge expense. Adding just
a hint of marble throughout your home will satisfy that marble-craving all while
staying within your budget. Some commonly used natural stones include marble,
onyx, granite, travertine, soapstone, slate and quartzite When people think of
marble they often think that it is strictly for flooring, counter tops, and benches.
Marble is being seen as a new fresh trend, forming focal statement pieces that are
easy on the eyes without looking bulky and hectic.
Adding marble accents and integrating them into your interior plan is a
fantastic way to add a touch of sophistication to any room in your home or
office space. ■
