Absolutely! Without seeing pics, a little hard to advise but here goes. The glam can be added with crystal and silver accessories like decanters, tray, platters bowls, lamps, picture frames,etc. I've seen some very nice pieces at the thrift stores from time to time. Crystal and silver add glam neutral effect. You could also use brass or gold if you prefer the warmers effects.Helpful Reply -

Ditto! If you really love these pieces do these things no need to continue to purchase new furniture with every trend. You can make it work. Look on line on this site for ideas for tablescapes.Helpful Reply -

I'll see what I can do it's just that most of the glam pictures you see on sites have basically brass and glass furnishings for the glam look thank you for respondingHelpful Reply -

Actually I feel they're essential base pieces to ground the space and give a surface to display our glam pieces and let them shine!Helpful Reply- See 1 previous

I have some classic, dark wood antiques that look fabulous in any decor. A few good pieces can be incorporated into your modern room design. If you buy good quality hardwood tables, bedroom dressers, and headboards with straight lines, they'll never go out of style. What you put on top of them will bring the elegance.Helpful Reply -
