tacky or flashy

So i would like to start showing next year, and this year i got a bran new hand made roping saddle, witch i luv very dearly,

do you think i should add silver to it, we have the silver set, and my mom knows how, would it make my saddle look tacky or flashy.
opinions are wanted thanx alot

mmm...imnot a fan of the whole silver sets. i mean if it was a pleasure saddle with a little bit of silver, it wouldnt be too bad. i guess you could try it *shrugs*

I like it a lot I don't think silver would be tacky, but I really like it how it is now.

I wouldn't. I'd polish up the conchos already on it, maybe get some silver sturrips and a really fancy pad and bridle. Besides you can't take holes out of leather
