Brass Is Back? Cool.

So, as I've been checking in on the design blogs and reading my House Beautiful magazine(thx, Connie), I've been noticing a trend....or should I say a comeback?

Brass.

Being a child that grew up in the 80's...I am very familiar with this finish.  Anyone my age, definitely remembers their parent's brass bed, the brass dining room chandelier and the doorknobs and everything else!

So the 80's style brass was definitely what's stuck in mind when I kept reading that "brass is back".  "Oh Lord", I thought...Until I saw these beautiful pics

How fabulous!  These rooms are warm and timeless.  Soemthing about the brass gives...I don't know, a grown up feeling that's not trendy at all.  It's kind of old school and old world rolled up in one. I really like it.  And the hint of gold beautifully compliments so many wonderful colors.  I'm kind of excited.



So after seeing these pics, I basically changed my mind on the oil rubbed cubin pulls I ordered.  I can always send them back. I bit the $29 bullet on Amazon and ordered 10 of these babies below.  Can't wait.

So WDYT?

Next on my list?  A master bedroom chandelier.
