home(stead): black walls

Gilles Mendel's dining room via Elle Decor

I am in FULL home mode. The problem is that I am in transition, moving in the next couple of months and don't really want to (need to) invest in anything that might not fit or go with the new house.  I have been managing my anxiety be rearranging, organizing, purging and repeat. I have also been diving into home decorating magazines and blogs, anticipating the new space. One decorating element I've always wanted (for years!) was to have one room painted in black. When we moved into our first house, I tried to convince my boyfriend (now husband) to paint his office black. We compromised with an almost black charcoal gray, got it home and he chickened out on me. Still have the can of paint. Plotting. A bathroom or dare I say, kitchen?
