Add Glass Decor to Your Brisbane Home This Winter

Winter might be cold weather and have shorter days but it’s a beautiful time of year in Brisbane.

Incorporate some glass décor in your home and while looking stylish during the winter months, it’ll also feel cosier.

Here are a few glass décor ideas for your Brisbane home this winter:

Mirrors

Mirrors can make your home feel larger and brighter, thanks to their ability to reflect light. Image reflection can also create the illusion of more space, especially so in small apartments or homes.

Hanging a large mirror in a hallway or living room can make the space feel more open and airy.

Mirrors can also be used to create a focal point in a room, for example by hanging one above a fireplace or bed.

Glass tables

A glass table is a stylishly modern look in any room, particularly in dining rooms and living rooms.

They can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. For a more formal look, pair your glass table with elegant chairs and a chandelier. Pairing your glass table with wicker chairs and a Moroccan rug will convey a more casual look.

Glass vases

Glass vases add a touch of elegance to the home. Try a clear glass vase with simple lines for a modern look, or a patterned coloured glass vase for a more traditional look.

They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so you can easily use them to display flowers, candles, or other decorative items.

Glass sculptures

Glass sculptures provide an eye-catching way to add personality to the home.

They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and can be displayed on tables, shelves, window sills, or even on the floor.

For modern styles, look for minimalist glass sculptures with clean lines. For more traditional looks, try more ornate, intricately detailed glass sculptures.

At Christmas time, you can display these glass ornaments on your Christmas tree.

Glass lanterns

Hang glass lanterns from the ceiling, from a doorway, or from a tree branch. For a more dramatic effect, hang several lanterns in a cluster.

As a tabletop centerpiece, a glass lantern on a dining table, a coffee table, or on a nightstand, can add warmth and enhance the ambience of a room. For a more festive look, fill the lanterns with tea lights.

Candle holders

Glass candle holders provide a stylish way to display candles. They can be used on a table, on a mantel, or on a shelf. For a more unique look, choose candle holders in different shapes and sizes.

How to light your glass ornaments

Place your glass ornaments in areas where they will be well-lit. This will help them to catch the light and reflect it in a beautiful way.

You can choose from a variety of light sources — for example, candles, table lamps, or floor lamps. Spotlights or track lighting can be used for more dramatic effects.

Colour from your light source adds further drama. For example, white light will make clear glass ornaments sparkle. Coloured light will create a more festive look.

Don’t be afraid to experiment with different arrangements of your glass ornaments. Your creativity will be rewarded because glass and light are made for each other.
