Livingroom
We already own a cream couch, a black TV and some simple light wood end tables. Most of the frames I already have are black and I just recently collected a few silver ones. You'd think I'd be hurting for a little color, but instead I'm totally drawn to the white and black Ikea rug. And then the chair that Paul thinks would be perfect for video game playing looks pretty rad in black.

So I think we may just end up with a black and cream and gold and white living/tv room. And I'm pretty excited about it.

    Pretty! Love the color scheme. It looks lovely as is, but you could also throw in a bold, accent color like yellow, or red, or orange? Maybe a few pillows? Fresh flowers? A stack of books?

    I am obsessed with that Nate Berkus lamp! I have a similar IKEA rug – the one with the three rows of stripes for our home office and love it. I’d point out though that it is black & cream, not black & white. You’re probably going in person, but if not, it’s good to know some vary! 🙂

    I have a couple of those IKEA vases and a larger one that matches. They are super cute and you can’t beat the price tag. Happy decorating! =)
