Brass Is Back!

Sometimes I can’t make up my mind.

When this happens, I just call it a day, already,

after wich, I procrastinate like crazy.

This can’t be good, you think.

But wait.  There are these:

Yes, it’s true — I’ve finally jumped aboard the brass-is-back train!

I have big plans for these vintage beauties

in our Dutch colonial kitchen.

Yes, they do, but which pulls?

I COULDN’T DECIDE!!

but he did agree to play along by holding a pull on its proposed drawer front.

Stay tuned.
