It is no secret that I not only love color.....but I also love my metallics!!! Metallic paint, metallic leafing, metallic gilding. If I had connections with a metal worker I'd be adding REAL metal accents to my furniture creations too! Metallics add an element of bling that you just can't get with color....no matter how bright the paint is or how well you blend colors.....it just won't give you bling without metallics! My FAVE of all FAVES is metal leafing...whether it is silver, gold or copper
