Oh Buoy Abodes - Copper

After receiving some gorgeous monogrammed copper mugs from my Oh Buoy Co-Captain, I got to thinking about copper. Using it in the home is a statement for sure, but we're wondering why it isn't used more often. It plays off so many different textures and colors, and can span traditional to modern. Here's some inspiration on how to bring some copper in to your life.

Oh Buoy Abodes - Mud Room

This weekend brought some seriously cold, wet, and windy weather to the Northeast. With one look out the window, I immediately started digging around in my closet for my boots, mittens, hats, and winter coat, still packed up from last year. It got me thinking about a great space to store my plethora of winter necessities throughout the cold seasons.
