Living Room Decor

**patevans** · 20-11-2009, 06:26 PM

I am going to decorate my living room in black and silver and want some inspiration, I am not supposed to decorate the walls but have done the chimney to make a bit of a feature.

I am not having black walls

but not sure what colour I should paint them

I am having a new black leather sofa

and I can put the black and silver nik-naks together just need to see some black and silver decorated rooms to look at, I have googled but nothing came up!

upload the pics from your camera to a file on your computer, then click on the paperclip next to the smiley face just above where you write your message then browse for the pictures and upload

preview your messgae before you send to see if they have attached!

There are some lovely papers in B and Q. We've recently done the chimney breast in shades of cream and beige ( not as boring as it sounds ). The paper has a huge flower pattern on so could really only do one feature wall but it does look nice
