Black Decor Doesn’t Have To Be Scary

With Halloween right around the corner, you may be thinking that black is a fitting color around the house for witch and goblin decor, but would you consider using this color as a design element during other times of the year? Your first reaction may be, no, black is dark and dreary and its presence in your home is not welcome. Well, I’d like to say that it’s just the opposite. Used correctly, black can be playful, sophisticated, dramatic, or even casual chic.

If putting black on your walls is a little farther than you’d like to go with this trend, how about using it to dress your windows?  Not quite the commitment of a black room, but statement making just the same.
