5 Ways To Marble To Your Home for A Timeless Look
*Collaborative Post
Are you yearning to infuse your home with a touch of opulence? Look no further than the timeless allure of marble. Whether you’re indulging in the real deal or opting for high-quality marble-effect decor items and furniture, marble’s natural beauty is an aesthetic that many homeowners continue to embrace. Its versatility allows you to incorporate it into various areas of your home, adding a touch of luxury and elegance.
However, where marble home decor is concerned, there can be too much of a good thing, and the last thing you want is to create a marble-themed home that is void of character and, well, soulless. Less is more in this case, and these tips are going to give you some suggestions as to how you can add marble to your home without losing its vibrancy and personality.
Dining Table
A marble dining table or marble effect table can be quite the statement piece in your dining room. Not only does the marble effect scream elegance, but it is also durable, heat resistant, moisture resistant, and easy to clean, making it the perfect material for dining tables. Real marble dining tables require sealing every 12 to 24 months, which is an important maintenance task to keep in mind. But due to the natural variables and multiple designs and colours, you can find the perfect marble dining table for a statement look every time you sit down to eat.
Furniture
Marble furniture is not just about adding opulence to your home decor scheme. It’s also about practicality and durability. Whether you’re drawn to metallic designs and colours, full marble pieces, or you just want a marble top side table, there are plenty of options for you to consider. The durability of marble ensures that your furniture will stand the test of time, while its opulent look adds a touch of luxury to your home.
Kitchen Countertops
Marble has long been a popular choice for kitchens, and for good reason. Its unique designs and markings can really add the wow factor to your kitchen, making it a focal point of your home. Not only is it the perfect setting for your kitchen-based activities, but it also gives your home a more grounded feel and can be more eco-friendly than other options.
Flooring
Marble flooring can make quite the statement on its own and is best used in large open spaces to get maximum impact. Typically marble flooring is ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, large entrance ways or bedrooms for a touch of glamour and luxury. However, it’s important to note that marble can be slippery, especially when wet, so it’s best to not overdo it when adding marble flooring and avoid excessively high-traffic areas. You can break up the design with well-placed furniture or rugs for added aesthetics.
Fireplaces
Marble is naturally softer and more porous than other natural materials, making it ideal for fireplaces and hearths. You can choose a dark marble fireplace to contrast a light room and vice versa or choose a simple look with timeless elegance and design. But if you have a fireplace and you want to incorporate marble into your home, the fireplace can be an excellent place to do just that.
