Decorating With Hints Of Gold In NYC

by | Sep 6, 2016

It is already that time of year: Autumn. Only lasting a few weeks during this serene season, the leaves turn into crisp shades of gold, which gives the tree tops a glorious color. While it is a shame that this gold tinge lasts for a limited amount of time on the leaves, the color gold is making an impact year round.

Looking through any home décor site, you’ll see hints of gold everywhere. After years of neglect, gold is making a comeback in a big way! Gold has become a major accent color in homes everywhere.

From just a hint to full pieces, here’s how to do gold the right way.


Accessorize ItGold Home Accent Pieces

Unsure of how to incorporate gold into your home? Try small changes; pieces that are easy to switch out are your best bet. For example, pillows, tray, frames, and candle holders are low commitment; therefore, you can still incorporate the latest trend into your space without spending a fortune or making a permanent decision.

For more permanent hints of gold, fixtures are up your alley. Switch out knobs and handles on your cabinets to make a subtle but complimentary statement. Whether it’s your kitchen cupboards or your dresser, adding gold accents in the form of handles is a unique way of making the room look classier without going overboard.

For those willing to take a full dip into the world of gold, furniture is the way to go. Invest in furniture pieces that will brighten up your home in a classy way, of course. The best course of action will be to buy gold colored accessory items. Gold coffee, side tables, etageres, and bed frames can bring a touch of elegance to any room.

If you’re a hands-on person, adding gold embellishments can put a unique spin on your space. Grab some ugly old chairs, bar stools, tables in rough condition and paint them the color of your choice. Then using a covering and painter’s tape, paint the bottom of the legs gold for the dipped look. You’ll have a unique look that’s double trendy.


Final Thoughts

Utilizing the color gold does not mean painting your walls gold and making your carpets gold as well. A subtle hint of gold emphasized the luxuriousness of the color while not making it too overt. In terms of color, less is always more. Gold adds elegance to any set piece or room, and effectively applying this fall color into your new home is key for luxury and beauty all in one.
