Okay, I need your opinion please. I made this Dresden Plate and not sure which color the center should be. My husband likes the green, I lean more to the brown.

I like the brown. It is more dramatic.

I like the brown too, but if there are going to be multiple blocks I'd mix it up and use them both.

I agree with mixing them up and using both but if not, go with the brown!

I am having a hard time deciding. The green kind of softens the whole thing a bit more. But the brown really looks good. I don't think you can go wrong with either one.
Flip a coin if in doubt.
