Metal Art in Decor

wilma — Mon, 27 Apr 2020 14:56:19 GMT

Do you like metal art in home decor?

I prefer pieces that have fluid shapes and lines. My pieces have swirls, fleur-de-lis, & vines on them. Pieces that have all straight geometric lines and are more abstract aren’t my style.

I have a few pieces mixed in with more traditional prints and paintings. Here are a few photos.

In our foyer

In our our dining room

In our bathroom

I like it, but, for me, a little goes a long way... I have a few pieces but have only hung one in a spare room...

I like a mixed media look for wall decor. I only have a couple of pieces; detailed, metal bicycle and large, tree of life.

I have this one in my living room. I had a hard time deciding which one I wanted when I was looking for something last summer. BTW, this is not my living room; it's from the web site.

@wilmaI like the fluid shapes, too. I don't have them in metal, but I do have a charcoal drawing that's dated in 1955. I'd love to have it rematted and reframed, but fear it's too fragile to touch.

In the dining room.

In the living room above the mirrors, and a copper fountain visible in the lower right reflection.

Didnt think I had a lot of metal wall art until I took @I am still OXOX's idea to take a photo !

We live on the Bay (Salt Water) and everything metal rusts extremely quickly here.

I can't have them in my home but admire them homes that I go in to.

I like the detail on this one. It’s a lot more intricate than it appears when I zoom in.

As soon as you enter thru my front door this is what you see. It fits perfectly on the wall above the finished stairwell that leads to the basement. It is big, probably a good 4 ft in height and width. I picked it up 25 years ago when DH and I went for a drive and stopped at a second hand resale shop out in the country. It only cost me $10.

This was a gift from someone who visited Haiti on a mission trip.

These are made out of steel drums and they sell them all over the place, some simple, some more elaborate, some with color.

These are butterflies in case it's hard to tell.

This is from Plow & Hearth I think. May have been from QVC. I love it, but am not sure where to use it, so I have it in a hallway for now.

These are from Hobby Lobby. They are very heavy, I think they are made of iron.

I apparently have a thing for butterflies.

I have one metal piece each in my living room, kitchen and master bath. I love them! The one in the master bath I've had for many years...before it really became a "thing" to decorate with these pieces.

In my kitchen and living room, I chose metal art for those particular walls because they get a great deal of sunlight...the metal pieces don't fade! We live in a very rural area, on a wooded property and I don't have curtains in most rooms.
