Hi Everyone! Last week I featured a DIY mineral scape that involved a range of materials, from marble tiles to brass hardware. Have you been noticing the current design trend of metal, stone, glass and wood? A true celebration of raw materials! One day the geo forms and marble mania will subside, but now that marble and brass are officially “back”, they can always be part of an ’80s lover’s design collection. And thanks to sites like Etsy, you can order these materials in bulk at reasonable prices. Bring on the DIY projects…or simply display them as is for a retro-meets-modern look!
Marble Mania
In honor of “Lobby Chic” Week here at Mirror80, I thought I’d share a few snapshots from my ’80s-inspired bedroom. Lately I’ve been a bit obsessed with marble tile. I buy it at home improvement stores and flooring retailers. The last time I went on a tile binge at Floor Decor, I left with an armful of marble pieces and paid no more than $20. What do I do with these tiles? I stack them. I lean them against the wall. Sometimes I use them in my DIY projects. The possibilities are endless…
