Big Black and White Stripes.

I love to see a style catch on like a wild fire, especially one that I LOVE.  Enjoy, Heidi

Chalk Board Wall.

The chalk board trend seems to be taking over the web.  The black background with the eroded white text and scribbles gives a bold yet informal look.  It is a good look, only it is also my kryptonite.  I can only look and admire these rooms, but not venture into them.  Is there such a thing as chalk board phobia?  Something happens to my nervous system when I hear.....you know what I'm talking about, I cannot even write about it, because of the effects it has on me.  I wish you all a wonderful weekend, I will be staying away from chalk boards.  Enjoy, Heidi

Bold Black and Beautiful

Isn't if funny that when you are contemplating something that you see it everywhere?  I have this fabulous butler's pantry that is painted white and I have been thinking of painting it black with the idea that it will knock the socks off of anyone who sees it.  Right now it kinda blends in with the background.  Any who, ever since I came up with the idea, I see black bookcases, armours, cupboards and you name it everywhere.  Here is a small sample of what I'm talking about.  Enjoy, Heidi
