All about brass

Just because it doesn't look nice when you find it, doesn't mean it won't clean up with a bit of brass cleaner.  I found each of these brass beauties in different op shops, but I never intended on specifically looking out for these sorts of whimsies.  I really love how they look elegant and vintage at the same time!
