#TRENDING: 10 Must-Have Decor Items Using Agate

January 03, 2014 in Decorating, Shopping

January is a good time to hone in on what’s trending in design, don’t you think?

I’m going to be spending the next few Fridays in January trend-spotting for you and including links to items that are out there creating a buzz in home decor.

Today, we’re looking at agate.

A deep, personal connection is made when a natural element is used in a home.

It's an obvious appreciation of the beauty found in nature. It’s something humans can’t improve upon, a natural gift that’s here for us to simply enjoy.

Natural gifts like a live edge, natural stone, and unique woods.

With the gemstone quality they have, items made from agate have a glamorous, luxurious look, while still touching that part of us that appreciates the beauty of nature.

While it would be fabulous to use agate as a window or a wall or a bathroom vanity, like in the images above, it can be more than a little pricey to bring it into your home. So maybe going smaller would be better for you?

Think back a month and you’ll remember I used agate as ornaments on my Trendy Glam Christmas Tree Shopping Board. And today I have some more beautiful finds that will bring agate into other areas of your home.

Take a look...
