SIDE KICKS

Metallic finishes are the fashion right now and the trend has carried over into home accessories. Gleaming knickknacks will give a tired old space a new modern look for much less than the cost of a complete remodelling. Be it a towel bar, a towel ring, a robe hook, a toilet paper holder or a tissue box. Stores like Nagina Waters ( see left) and Address Home in Delhi also have door hardware, cabinet pulls, mirrors and switch plates in the same beautiful finish to complete your remodel. Due to the popularity of the brushed nickel finish, there a quite a few complimentary pieces. Framed wall mirrors, shelving hampers, shower curtain rings and waste paper baskets can all be found. If you want true opulence, there is always the gold and silver plated variants from the likes of Sherle Wagner.
