Brick and Stone selections

Here we go on picking brick and stone selections. The brick is a nice choice without the stone. The stone is a nice choice without the brick. The two do not compliment each other at all. It's like wearing stripes with checks. I would put the brick in the Earth Tone category and the stone is of earth tone colors. Put them both together, it is too busy. It's like both of my boys fighting for their mother's attention. The stone should have been a lighter color, almost a cream color with slight color ranges. If the stone was the preferred choice, then a rich colored brick should have been chosen.
