1. So we’ve all seen wicker seating, but when you use wicker in unexpected ways, it really brings a freshness to this age-old material. Try a wicker chandelier to mix things up! Here’s an awesome DIY tutorial for creating your own, stylish wicker chandelier shade.

I love this particular wicker chandelier (shown below). It’s so unique! You can purchase it here.
2. Mix and match wicker furniture with industrial style decor to create a contemporary look. (Like with these galvanized steel bistro chairs here and here.)

4. Try uniquely shaped wicker seating for your home! I bet you’ve never seen wicker in a living room quite like this before. (see below)

I actually found a stunning wrought iron dining set that included chairs with wicker backs and a wicker table base with a glass top, all from Salvation Army! I re-painted the wrought iron in high-gloss black paint and re-upholstered the seats. It was the perfect combination in my contemporary apartment and I received compliments all the time! Sadly, I can’t locate a photo now, but it may make an appearance in the future. Wicker is the best!
