By Alice Turnbull 2 years ago 2233 Views No comments

As I write this blog post, there are only 50 days to the big day… Christmas Day that is.With the ongoing effects and consequences of the pandemic, there may be supplier shortages on toys, turkeys and even Christmas trees (eek!) But here at Black Country Metal Works, we have been working tirelessly with our elves and have a huge collection of home and garden items in stock and ready to go, with the majority of them on next day delivery!

Just like 2020, 2021 has been a trying and tiring time for the entire world, so if you are finally getting to meet up with your loved ones this festive period or celebrating over a trusty Zoom call, what better way to add a little more cheer and joy, than a wrapped up Christmas gift!

As we move away from the warm summer months of sitting and relaxing outside to colder days and darker nights, we are turning our attention to our indoor spaces which can double as social spaces.

Before heading down to Wren’s Kitchens to replace your entire kitchen, you need to think about what you want from your kitchen or how will it be used. Is it purely to separate functionality and entertainment or are you combining to create a versatile space?

When it comes to the front door, first impressions really do mean everything. Front door styles, colours and furniture tells the visitor, family members or postie something about your taste and style. As the main entrance to your home, the front door gives a great impression to your home’s aesthetics within. The main focal point to the exterior of the property, front doors and the furniture’s they hold, may even enhance the curb appeal and future property sale price. For those who are lucky enough to have a detached home, it is often easier to showcase your style and identity, however for terraced or semi-detached homes, front doors are the only way to mark your individuality and style. With so many front door choices, colours and furniture designs, it is often easy to get overwhelmed with the amount of choices. Not to worry though, we have created this handy front door guide which will provide you with all the information you need, whilst also inspiring you!

Always remember, as a rule, there are no rules. Do what suits you, your style and your home style.

It certainly has been a strange start to the year but as we remain indoors, our minds have been ticking over what we can do to upgrade, renovate and update items and rooms in our home. That got us thinking, with a new year, new me mantra, we have been intrigued by what interior décor trends might be popping up this year. As we are spending a lot more time indoors, having an interior you are proud of is not only good for metal wellbeing, but self- love and worth that you created this oasis away from the crazy world outside your front door.

According to the interior gods (or experts), the interior décor trends of 2021 are really much of what we have seen in 2020 (see our blog here detailing all the trends). Yet 2021 will bring with it more natural, warm organic tones and will celebrate the raw materials that the world has to offer. So here are all the trends that you will be seeing as you scroll through Instagram and Pinterest.
