How to Pull Off a Metallic Mash Up

     In fashion and design, from going home to take off that silver strapped bag to slipping off the gold watch into the bag, we've always been cautious of letting gold and silver display themselves alongside each other whether it be on our attire or in our homes. But as it turns out Gold and Silver can be pals too! As a matter of fact, lots of metals can hang out together and have a fabulous time at your home.

 Looking for a few tips before you get in on this? Well,  look no further! Here are a few to help you along the way.

#1 Create a decor space and put your gold and silver action to display
   
    It's a great idea to step into this trend by trying out the mix and match on a small area of your house. You can mix and match a few metallic frames and create a decor wall, or even adding metallic elements to a horizontal space like a side console is a great idea.

#2 Assign spaces to the silvers and the golds while letting them sit comfortably as a whole

       If you feel the mix is clashing, group up your silver ware to one area while your gold can sit on another end. This way they can politely smile at each other from a distance while standing strong in their own space.

       You can create this division vertically or horizontally.

#3 Use a festive season to try this look out

      Christmas, Diwali and such are great festivals to try this classy mix up at. Throw in a bunch of sequined metallic cushions, hang silver and gold buntings or light up your silver ware with gold lights.
      If you love the outcome, keep it around the whole year!

#4  Use a color to blend with one metallic while allowing the others to stand out

       Against a solid background like a grey tone, your silver will blend in beautifully allowing your golds to play dress up. This illusion can work both ways. This tip will work wonders in places like your kitchen where you want a touch of gold but are held back by the silver of the electronics and faucets.

#5 Use a strong color to tie up your metallics

        You can spread your metallics around the room with this tip. Neutral shades like white and cream or even bold ones like black and navy will not interfere with the gold and silver interplay but will instead compliment them subtly and attractively.
