Putting It Together - Black


A lot of people are scared to decorate with black but it looks so wonderful when put into a room with either white, neutral or very light grey backgrounds.

I have black features in my rooms and always have. When sunlight falls on black furniture it picks up the details brilliantly also when it is carefully lit in the evenings.
I have put together some items that I think would really work in a big lounge with lovely high ceilings. Hope you like it.
Chesterfield Sofa, Chair, Drawers and Console Table all from Maisons du Monde
Black Lace Table Cloth and Lace Mirror from Mirror Mirror
Silk Tassled Lamp from Sera London
Hand Printed Butterfly Wallpaper Panel from Rockett St George
Black and White Floral Rug from The Rug Company

I am a fan of black and have black touches on my Napoleon III chairs.

I absolutely love black in rooms. It is so luxe.

I've used black with cream and white. The two day beds and the coffee table are black wrought iron, so that started me.
