Mixing metals in room?
Comments (4)Thanks - I think I'll be able to put lacquer on the tables this week, should be able to move them into the house (my garage is now a workshop!) next weekend after they're dry, I'll take pics then. The room (heck, the whole house!) is a bit "eclectic" since we have a contemporary Natuzzi sofa, these Stickley knockoff tables (though I think the lines of the legs echo the sofa arms), an Oriental carpet, and Morrocan Tile pattern drapes over roman shades. Or will, once I finish the window jambs and trim and hang everything. Then we'll be looking for table lamps, DH wants a recliner and a flat screen TV in there too....See MoreMixing Metals (Gold/Brass and Silver) In Adjacent Rooms?
Comments (4)ditto to what Fun said. even if you can remove the brass fireplace cover (if you can, even better) throw a large painting tarp down, get some plastic and tape off everything, within 3-5 feet, but the brass. use this spray paint in the matte black, and give it 2-3 light coats. It will look perfect. touch up any areas with small artist brush and some of the paint otherwise, mixed metals w/frames and such are fine....See Morecan I mix metal finishes in my bath can I mix metals in my bath?
Comments (1)If you integrate the gold metal somewhere else in the room then it will work....See MoreBathroom fixtures are chrome. Door handle oiled bronze.
