Hello! I hope you’ve had a great week! This was one of those busy weeks for me where pending DIY projects had to be put on hold (Life, how dare you).:-)
But this coming week is looking good for me to be able to install some wood trim in the the hallway. Hooray!
I’m still debating between two different kinds of wood treatments (normal chair rail wainscoting OR long board and batten boxes). We’ll see which wins out!
The photo above shows how my 2-story foyer looks all painted up in Benjamin Moore Simply White. Painting it was an adventure but I’m sure loving the change!! The arrow indicates where I’ll be doing the wood trimming this week.
Today I thought it would be fun to talk about a color that I don’t speak of very much–Black.
Black is classic. It is always in style in some shape or form. To me black exudes feelings of strength, boldness, sophistication, and dependability (and of course gloominess when it is the only color in the room).
Here are 5 ways I have noticed black trending in design lately–
1. Black Subway Tile
2 Black Painted Walls (or 1 Black Accent Wall)

Need some resources for black paint colors? You can try Benjamin Moore Jet Black, Benjamin Moore Black Ink, or Benjamin Moore Raccoon Fur for a bit lighter shade of black.
