Add A Little Bit Of Eastern Style To Your Home

Take a


look at an Eastern style with hammered, punched or embossed, decorative metal . Imagine taking a


walk  through the bazaar on a


foreign holiday and seeing all those beautiful


items  created by craftsmen out of lovely


burnished and treated metal. These accessories like plates and bowls help add


the exotic look of the souk to even the plainest of rooms  . And you do not need to restrict this look to


simple accessories  . Light fittings, too,


look fantastic in these materials.  A beautifully ornate pendant light, made from


punched nickel-plated metal, would make a great focal point in a hallway or indeed in a living


room or dining room. And what about using the same idea for your table


settings? It could not be simpler . All you need to do is add a few brightly aromatic candles to a softly curved metal candle holder 


for an attractive  centre piece for


your table and a certain talking point for your dinner guests . Try  to pair this up with


suitable  glassware – coloured or


patterned glass , perhaps a little ~ maybe a bit old fashioned to some –


would be absolutely perfect ~would work perfectly ~ would be the ideal


choice. The scented~ aromatic~ fragrant~ perfumed candles made~ created~


produced ~ manufactured by True Grace candles would be ideal ~ a good choice


~suit down to the ground, especially~ particularly the gold coloured beeswax


ones they have available . Choose, for instance, a large hammered


candlestick in brushed or aged bronze for a sophisticated look  that will


be equally at home in a modern as well as a traditional property. The hammered


base look also looks great lit up at night   .The ideal choice would be an elegant pillar candle made from beeswax


from True Grace candles or Yankee candles, but


there are lots of otherchoices out there. Shop around to find the one that


suits your needs best.  Beautiful


design at a great price means you can splash out on more


than one hammered pieces and group them together to create a stunning effect. Do


not forget that dimpled frames are perfect for displaying on aside board or


mantelpiece. What about wow wallpaper? Did you know you can even get wallpaper


with a hammered metal finish. With a subtle metallic finish, the wallpaper has


just the right amount of shine and will look fantastic paired with the right


sort of furniture. If you want to carry the theme further you can do so with a clever choice of glassware and plates for the dinner table - nothing says the Levant more than a beautiful Moroccan tagine which is the perfect dish not only for Moroccan food, but also for making any hearty stew or casserole. Another simple but terrific addition would be a hand made leather pouffe or footstool. With their intricate detail, hand stitchd on the leather,  these make a fantastic - and comfortable - addition to any living room.
