We love the gorgeous copper colour and although its an extremely time consuming process, we’re in love with the finished product. Copper can bring any space to life and we think it goes exceptionally well with fresh fruit and a bunch of freshly picked flowers.
Because of our overwhelming obsession with copper and using recycled materials to bring beauty and luxury to life, we’ve compiled this list of 101 uses for our copper homewares
1. Use one of our handcrafted copper bowls to beautifully display the fruits and vegetables that you have bought from your local farmers markets
2. Create a stunning floral arrangement in one of our Avery Baskets by picking bright, coloured flowers and fresh greenery from your garden, placing a jar of water at the bottom of the basket and arranging the blooms
3. Put one of our sparkling copper plates or bowls to use by placing fresh, fragrant bread rolls inside and displaying it on the table for your next lunch time feast
4. Collect your chicken eggs from the backyard in style by carrying one of our handcrafted baskets with you, placing the eggs inside and then carrying them back up to the house to display on the kitchen bench
