Copper is one of my favorite materials, both as a jeweler and a decorator. It’s warm, glowing, and rosy, and can compliment so many palettes, from equally warm colors to bringing a sparkle to cooler choices (give me a copper and amethyst necklace any day!). Gold and silver are the traditional Christmas metals, but what about this versatile color? Let’s see what’s out there!
Adorable copper cookie cutter from Sur La Table. Talk about multitasking; make a few tree cookies and then hang this little guy on the real tree!
Other-than-green Christmas trees are all the rage this year, so how about this glittering copper beauty (best buy at Amazon.com). It’s also prelit, saving you precious holiday time.
These punched copper gingerbread men (running, of course) from Etsy seller tinworks are a staple from my own childhood as well! I recall creating these as a very young child, and my own still grace my tree to this day. DiY with some copper sheeting and nails, or pick these up from tinworks!
Even though Hanukkah is over for this season, the menorah is a delightful decoration in copper as well! This lovely woven metal version is available from Traditions Jewish Gifts. What glitter and glow are you enjoying this holiday season?
