I have white cabinets & wallpaper in my kitchen, with blue countertops, floor and dining set. I’m so ready for a change, but don’t have lots of cash, so thought of black and white with toile window treatments and coordinating black and white chair covers. My collection of Fiestaware, in bright, bold colors would really look beautiful with this simple but elegant color palette. I googled and found your blog. You have great ideas that fit right in with my scheme. Now I’m really excited to get started. I can use one or 2 of my Fiestaware colors at a time, which gives me many options, or use all the colors at once.
My biggest hurdle is my husband. He doesn’t want me paint the dining set black. Anyway, thanks so much for sharing your creative and beautiful ideas with all of us!.

I LOVE the black and white look! And I love how you can change the feel by changing the colors during the different seasons. But how can I get the same look when I have a brown leather couch, and a dark brown loveseat? Got any good ideas?!?

I LOVE your family room. I, too, have color commitment issues.
I like to keep the rooms neutral and change accessories with the seasons. I do not want to get stuck with a color for too long. I do love color on other people’s walls, though.

I love the simplicity of working in just black and white. It forces the designer to work with other elements and focus on texture and emotion. I eventually made my own bedroom mostly white with a few black accessories (similar to the first picture). It is so heavenly and relaxing with the most divine glow.

Thanks, Aubrey! I’m working on a post about Stickley furniture right now, so check back for that soon and all your questions will be answered. I have a feeling that once you see it, you’ll recognize it. You just didn’t know that’s what it’s called.

Julia! Your house is so nice! I really love your living room and I loved your post about your office too–it all looks like a designer did it, at least in my opinion.
I feel like a hillbilly–what is Stickley furniture? Do they have a website?
