I love the mix of copper and silver together in any element. Some people think you can't do it, or it does not look right. It truly depends, however I find I do it often and like it.
I also love mixing gold and silver jewelery together.
No matching is best for me.
While browsing home goods with my gal pal, I spotted this gorgeous cross in the clearance section.
No price,
and the only one like it.
I found the sales associate and she did a price check and told me it was
9.99!
Mr. Doo's really liked this new cross too!
What do you think? You like mixing the two elements, or not so much?
I have since changed some things in this bathroom and will share with you a project soon.
Have a great day!!!

Happy Easter!
See you tomorrow night for the newbie party..

Hi Sweetie!! I love mixing! You got a wonderful deal on that beautiful cross! Your bathroom is pretty! I dont think I remember seeing pics of the bathroom.I think copper goes with everything. Remember there are no rules. If you love it them make it yours:) Have a great Easter weekend! I think its going to be a pretty one after all that rain we had yesterday:)
I love mixing metals. I have both copper and stainless steel in my kitchen and love the look! I say go for it! Your cross is beautiful!!!
I like the cross Debbie and have often wondered. I have all stainless steel in my kitchen and would love to mix copper "stuff" because I love it (just can't afford it) lol. You go ahead and start a new trend so that I can do it when my kitchen is finished.
I think it looks gret Debbie! You have a way of making everything you do look good. :) Have a great Easter!
I LOVE the two metals together and love mixing metals... it adds depth and character to a piece. Your home is just lovely! Always a treat to see what you have added or done.
Have a good weekend.

Mixing metals makes a room more interesting, so of course you can! The cross is perfect for you. when I saw the photo, I thought it was something you moved from another one of your fabulous rooms!
Love the cross, Debbie! I love mixing metals, too. I think, as long as there's a good balance of each, it looks intentional, and adds interest. Happy Easter!
Such a gorgeous cross. I love mixing all the metals. Hope you have a very special Easter. Hugs, marty

I've always mixed metals,Debbie. Clients like that because we can use more of their things. It just makes sense to use restraint and good taste! But I think YOU know that! Your cross is cool beans great! Happy Easter! ~ Sue
Deb - that cross is SO you!!! It's awesome. Congrats on finding it - it's perfect for your gorgeous home.
xoxo,
Kim

Oh yea! LOVE that cross! copper and silver can absolutely be mixed, as is evidenced by that beautiful cross you scored. Like the old girlscout song...."Make new friends, but keep the old, one is Silver and the other is Gold." Mix it up! Happy easter,

Happy Easter weekend to you and your guys. ~ Sarah

When I was younger, I refused to mix. Now I say...mix it up! There are no rules! Your cross is beautiful.
It's gorgeous! It is always allowed if they are in the same piece like yours is. Now you can use both metals as much as you want in the room, at least according to my rules of play.
That's one grand looking cross, Debbie..Happy Easter!
I'm with you on mixing metals. . . and oh! I just love that cross! It's beautiful. And what a good time you picked to highlight it here!
Happy Easter to you!
Beautiful!!! I love it also!!! Can't wait to see your Mom's little dog at the pet party!!!
Have a Beautiful Easter!!!
Happy Easter Debbie!
Love,
Susan and Bentley

I love mixing metals together, too! Your new cross is beautiful ... and, what a bargain! Happy Easter!
Ilove the cross, very pretty, Debbie and great price too. I like mixing metal colors too....Christine
I'm not a matchy type person and love mixing all kinds of things! Your cross is beautiful! Hope you have a wonderful Easter!
Have a very blessed Easter Debbie!!
I'm not a newbie but I had to ask, where did you get the burlap pillow in Swedish? You had it propped on a table (not the one on the bed obviously since that is in English). My parents are from Sweden so it made me curious. Tak (thanks in Swedish), Katharine
Love the cross Debbie, you scored!
I think that when copper and silver are mixed into the design, it can work. It's how you feel with the end result that counts. I absolutely love the look of copper, kinda feels vintagie, while silver is feels mostly modern but the two can work nicely together when incorporating it into your design.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that cross!!
