Welcoming Warmth: How Copper Furniture Transformed Our Holiday Home
As we prepared to welcome our extended family for the holidays, my wife and I decided it was time to upgrade our dining and living spaces. We wanted something special—furniture that would not only be functional but also create a sense of warmth and elegance. After much research (and a lot of indecisive late-night conversations), we discovered Woodland Creek Furniture’s Copper Collection. It was love at first sight!
The Decision Dilemma
Browsing thru Woodland Creek Furniture’s website was like looking into a rustic wonderland. The copper pieces stood out immediately, each one a unique masterpiece. The warm hues of red, brown, orange, and black in the copper seemed to glow, radiating a cozy energy that felt just right for the holidays.
Choosing a single piece, however, was no easy task. The Treaveau Copper Pedestal Dining Table with its hammered texture caught my eye, but so did the Twig Hammered Copper Coffee Table that seemed perfect for our living room centerpiece. After much deliberation (and a few friendly debates with my wife), we chose both.
The Artistry of Copper
What truly sold us was learning about the craftsmanship behind these stunning pieces. Woodland Creek Furniture’s copper isn’t just any copper—it’s reclaimed and recycled, hammered, and shaped using methods passed down through generations of skilled coppersmiths in Villa Escalante, Mexico.
The colors of the copper are created by heating it within a precise temperature range, resulting in rich, random hues that make each piece completely unique. No two tables are alike, which made our choice feel even more special. And let’s not forget the attention to detail—no ugly solder lines, perfectly rounded edges, and copper that lies flat without bubbling.
A Glow That Warms the Heart
Now that our copper dining table and coffee table are in place, our home has transformed. The copper reflects the warm light of the fireplace and holiday candles, adding a soft glow that creates an inviting atmosphere. Sitting around the table with family, you can’t help but feel the unique warmth it brings to the room—it’s as if the furniture itself becomes a part of the celebration.
Easy Care, Lasting Beauty
One of my initial concerns was maintenance. However, Woodland Creek Furniture assured us that the copper is sealed with a paste wax, which protects it from spills and oxidation. A quick periodic waxing keeps the copper looking as good as new, and if we ever decide to let it age naturally, it can develop a beautiful green patina over time.
A Gift for Generations
These pieces feel like more than just furniture—they feel like heirlooms in the making. Their durability and timeless beauty ensure they’ll be part of our family gatherings for years to come. Whether it’s holiday dinners or game nights, our copper tables will be there, quietly adding warmth and elegance to every memory.
If you’re considering adding a touch of copper to your home, I can’t recommend Woodland Creek Furniture enough. Check out their collection and see for yourself. This holiday season, we’re proud to welcome our family into a home filled with warmth, beauty, and a little bit of magic, thanks to Woodland Creek Furniture’s copper masterpieces.
