    I like both, but the brown makes the colors show more.

    Green and brown are both my favorite colors but in this instance I think I like the green better. It gives it a softer look.

    I like both but the brown stands out more. A mix of both would be nice but it all depends on what sort of a look you want.....best wishes!

    Normally I prefer greens, but I like the way the brown looks better!

    Brown has my vote, but also agree that if you have many blocks to use both colors to mix it up.

    Thank you all for your input. I wanted to make "only" a wall hanging with just one Dresden plate, but I might change it and make three more and then alternate the center.
    Someone asked how big the blades are, they are 8 inches.

    I agree with the green. When I look at the green with the green fan blades spacing it looks like a secondary design.The brown pops but it over whelms the other colors. (IMHO) Either way it's be beautiful.
