Ever since I went to AB Chao's design camp (I know I've talked about it a lot lately but I seriously learned a lot) I have been IN LOVE with dark walls. They definitely require some bravery but I think they are totally worth it because all of a sudden all of your beautiful things standout in the room!
Here are some perfect examples of what I mean...

You probably realized that when I say dark walls I mean, nearly black.
Harvest has begun in Iowa which means that I am officially a "farm widow!" (aka totally on my own to do what I please...sorta) Farm widows get to do all sorts of cool stuff, like paint walls nearly black without their husband objecting. It's a pretty cool thing, really!
A dark wall will soon make an appearance in our home on the north wall of our dining room! :)

Before I moved in with Eric, the town home I lived in had black walls in the dining room and it was beyond gorg. I wish I could take credit for it :)
