How to Use Black for Fall
Every fashionista knows that a woman needs an LBD.
I’m talking about a Little Black Decor! Yes, friends, black is today’s hot accent color. Black window trim, black furniture, black honed granite, black accent walls.
We’re pairing black with white, black with wood–and black with white and wood.
But black with—fall decorations?? Yes, ma’m! And here’s how I did it:
I’ve got my mums and my pumpkins and my greenery: check, check, and check! But the ooh la la is in the black details!
My painted black runner up to the…
black front door with a…
black and white plaid door mat and accents of…
black and white pillows and some…
black and white gingham pumpkins, not to mention some…
black crate lettering, black polka dots, and
a black pail turned pumpkin prop!
The burning question: Why did I spend the time to purchase, haul and arrange (and rearrange and rearrange) these items until dark-thirty and my husband is asking if I want to go ahead and order pizza, he and the boys are starving?
Because–I want it to look to all our guests like what my black sign says:
Welcome Y’all!
(So everybody got fed, and I do think it does look welcoming. Can I get an amen?)
