Decorate a plain coffee table with white ceramic vases and fresh violets: Although there may be frosty temperatures ahead, you can always embrace the fresh spirit of springtime with sleek white pottery and gorgeous blossoms. Try updating a solid, staid wooden coffee table with a structural white ceramic vase. Fill the simplistic vase with sweet violets for a floral finishing touch at home.
Use a trendy ceramic table lamp to bring texture to your living room: With fierce winds and dark nights on the horizon, try instantly illuminating your space with a statement porcelain lamp. If you’re craving the look of vivid patterns, try ceramic table lamps adorned with hand-painted stripes, swirls and pops of colour. Look for soft blue, pale green and creamy off-white shades to bring a tranquil seaside inspired touch into your home this season.
Bring the sophisticated look of ceramic floor tiles into your kitchen: For a cool neutral statement, add beige or pale grey porcelain tiles to your kitchen floors. Not only will you instantly create a cool, refined decorating statement, you can also completely revamp your kitchen by simply replacing those peeling linoleum floors for a more stylish solution.
Upgrade your space with ceramic art: The artistic aesthetic of ceramic art brings an elegant and creative air to your humble abode. If your bedroom or living room walls are crying out for a burst of colour, try adding ceramic wall art in a variety of eclectic shades and patterns. Meanwhile, unique porcelain centrepieces and ornate jugs can easily breathe new life into a dull room which is in dire need of a décor refresh.
