Some think brass and think old, traditional and gaudy. Others, like me think of vintage libraries with tufted leather chairs with cigar smoke filling the air like a scene out of Mad Men.

After thinking more about my master bedroom plans, I can’t seem to get brass accents off my mind.  I immediately want them everywhere, and I’m especially fond of the brass accents in the room above (click photo for link).  I love how just the little brass table is all the room needs, but adds a completely new layer of interest.

Maybe brass can be the hint of shine you need to liven up your space?

How are you feeling about brass? Care to add some to your decor?  Just a splash?

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
