Homes Decorating

Decorating with glass does not need to be expensive or cliché. Today’s decorative glass goes far beyond colored glass bottles, mirrors, and walls made from glass blocks.

At one time glass was considered as cold and static. Today’s decorators have learned how to blend glass with color and light to create mood and bring life to a room. A new glass, UltraGlas, can be shaped into textured sheets and panels with raised designs.

It is used in everything from tabletops and windows to mirrors and showers enclosures. UltraGlas adds drama and elegance to every décor without creating a crafty or homemade atmosphere in the home.

UltraGlas comes in sheets that can be used for making everything from furniture to lamp shades. It also comes in tiles that can be used anywhere that normal tile is used, including the floor.

The fundamental design element of glass is its ability to manipulate light and color. Opaque, textured, colored, etched, and stained glass has limitless uses in today’s homes. Textured glass can be used over a window to create an open concept bathroom. It can be used as a backsplash in the kitchen.

Opaque and textured glass is a perfect cover for a glass table when the homeowner is tired of looking at their feet through the table. It also hides smudges and fingerprints on the glass.
