If you love metallic finishes, but you don’t want to risk adding too much of a good thing in your home, adding smaller touches might be your best bet. Something small like a silver shower curtain rod can bring a clean, industrial vibe to a bathroom. A silver curtain rod in your living room or bedroom compliments sleek minimal styling.
