Wrought Iron Decorating Ideas from Ashlee Simpson’s Home

by

When singer and actress Ashlee Simpson listed her 7,100-square-foot villa in the Beverly Hills Post Office area for $3.69 million in spring of 2011, realtor.com posted 20 photos of the fabulous Mediterranean style house on its website. With five bedrooms, six and a half baths, a pool and spa, media room, meditation room and breath-taking views of canyons, mountains and greenbelts, the listing was sure to go fast.

Not surprisingly the listing agent, Sotheby’s International, reported the house had sold by June 2011 for $3.475 million, not too far off the asking price in a slow real estate market. While we’re sure the meditation garden and gourmet kitchen had plenty to do with the quick sale, what really attracted us about the photos of Ms. Simpson’s home were the many and varied uses of wrought iron. From the railing on the second-floor balcony to lighting fixtures and accent pieces, wrought iron is a repeated decorating theme throughout the home.

Eiffel — like blacksmiths and ironworkers centuries before him — knew that, behind its rock-hard exterior, wrought iron could be as beautiful as it was functional.

Wrought iron wall coat hooks and racks are a great way of storing coats, jackets and other outdoor apparel while using next to no floor space at all.

A wall coat hook can be very easily installed and almost anyone can mount a wall coat hook or rack with the mounting screws that come with it. The small size of a wall coat rack makes it very easy to transport from one place to another and the ease with which you can mount or dismount a wrought iron wall coat hook or wall coat rack makes it very feasible to take the wall coat rack with you when you are moving from one apartment to another.
