Maybe I should just stop thinking about it so much and just go with my gut.Erikahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01370313517058926051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2298113575837271231.post-1221542080133991642013-03-29T12:58:19.780-07:002013-03-29T12:58:19.780-07:00I mixed oil rubbed bronze, black and some very sub...I mixed oil rubbed bronze, black and some very subtle hints of copper and gold in my bathroom. Like mixed woods, I think it can be done tastefully. (I've mixed birch, teak and walnut throughout my house too.)Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2298113575837271231.post-9821166569324076882013-03-28T21:42:59.118-07:002013-03-28T21:42:59.118-07:00Thanks Jill.

But for the lighting I don't ever think that needs to match finish-wise. I think that globe is fantastic, btw!! That minimal, clean look is so calming in the bath, I think!! :) Actually all of your choices would look so good, but I say go for the one you love!!
