Temporary Nest

Hiya Nesters!  Today we have a guest post from Susi from Arcadian Lighting.  She knows how much of a sucker I am for a new glass accessory and thought she'd share some of her favorites with us.  Without further adieu, here's Susi!

Hi, I'm Susi, a blogger over at Arcadian Lighting, a great source for lighting fixture ideas and inspiration. I'm so excited to be here at Temporary Nest today to do a guest post about cool glass accessories. From vintage finds to contemporary glass mobiles and lamps, glass accessories add color and shine to any space. Hope you enjoy!

There are so many choices out there for cool glass accessories. This chic dining room is filled with ideas on how to decorate with glass. The clear glass mobile and colorful glass vessels are two of my favorites.

Glass accessories are perfect for adding color to a room, corner, shelf or tabletop. Grouping similar colors together creates a bigger impact, like these tall blue vases.

Big scale makes this amber glass vase feel so cool. It's great on a dining table to add height as well as color to the table. It would also be cool on a buffet or console table.

Who doesn't love the versatile style of a Mason or Ball jar? These oversized glass jars with metal lids are a chic interpretation on the classic glass storage jar. More lovely glass objects that caught our attention are the big vase and great pendant light.

Cool glass candlesticks make for chic table top accessories in this coastal style living room. Clear glass, colored glass, milk glass or mercury glass candlesticks would all work in this space.

Sometimes the simplest things can also be the coolest things. Using a group of Pellegrino bottles as vases and placing the group in a crate is so pretty and clever.

Glass table lamps are cool accessories, but vintage Murano glass lamps are even cooler. These lamps are like works of art with the color and patterns typical of Murano glass.

Vintage glass accessories are so cool and can definitely add a unique, personal touch to space. These glass birds are incredible, as are the glass vases and candlesticks. Which of these lovely glass accessories do you like the best? For fresh interior design and lighting ideas every day, be sure to visit Arcadian Lighting's blog! (Images: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8)

Thank you Susi for your lovely post!   


Hope you Nesters had a great Valentines day!  Matt and I ended up canceling reservations and ordering in Chinese since I have a terrible head cold.  Let us know what you guys did for Valentines day or if you've gotten a new glass accessory that will make us all totally jealous!
