A KNACK FOR BLACK

In reference to Black Friday today, I want to talk a little about the color black and how it can entirely transform an interior space.  Of course to some people, black is considered dark, morbid and gothic but to others it's completely the opposite.  I for one, think a good dose of black in a space immediately suggests drama, opulence and is always chic.  The impact of large expanses of black in a room can be exceptionally fresh and just as dramatic as you'd expect.  Black is certainly underused in most homes, but you'd be surprised just how glamorous this neutral oozes sophistication.  It glows in sunlit places and is a pristine backdrop for jewel tones, bright colors and the perpetual white.  My love for black is equal to my love for white and I would certainly use it in my home... if only I can get my husband on board with the idea!  How about you, are you brave enough to use this color in your home?
