Silver or Brass? Opinions Needed!

Posted on October 6, 2011 by Elisa @ What the Vita

A quick post – I need your opinion! Here’s a small peek of our painted dresser for the nursery, but I can’t decide…

Should we leave the hardware brass or turn them into silver?? I have Rub ‘n’ Buff in silver all ready to go, patiently waiting for me to make up my mind. Nick has no opinion. What’s yours?

(The color is more teal-ish than what is shown here. Silly camera!)

I’m all for gold/brass. Definitely adds the “vintage charm” to almost anything!

Brass, baby! It would go great with the curtains’ tone! And it starts with a B like baby- always a good omen

Interesting how the comments are overwhelmingly on the side of brass, but the voting goes to silver… Hmm!!

Brass makes the teal pop more. And gives it more character I thinks.

Definitely brass. I think the silver looks more cheap/spraypainted!

The aged brass makes the piece look much more special, I think.

I wonder if you had the baby this weekend? Hope so!

  I wish, Kai. I wish. Baby’s still nestled up inside of me and shows no signs of budging…
