As Simple as Black & White

www.eleganceredifined.com

Color is a mysterious thing.
It has been proven that color can do many things from calming your mood to stimulating your appetite.
Choosing a color for interior design (be it paint, fabric or other finishes) can be a difficult decision.
It isn't as easy as just picking a red or blue.
Colors vary by hue, shade, value and can be warm, cool, saturated or muted.
Color choices are very personal, intimate and biased.
Current trends and fashion influence color as well.
Whew, makes you want to just kick the color buckets and keep it as simple as black and white.

Your black and white pics are interesting . I used similar fabrics recently for a baby's room adding purple for added punch. See windowperfection.blogspot.com

I love it so much since i love the black and white design for draperies, blinds or shades. Thanks for sharing these wonderful pictures. It gives me idea on how to do my drapery.
