Basic black: 5 things that go with (almost!) everything

If you've been reading this blog a while, you know that our favorite kind of posts are fun lists! It's an easy way to tell you about things you might not know we have, and to cover items for every room in the house.

Today our list is all about the color black! People don't often think of black as a basic decorating color, but it can often be used just like a neutral shade, to contrast or accent other bright colors in the room.

 From Country Living:

Depending on how you style it, black has the power to add refined sophistication or a simple country feel.
