I'm redoing my room. I want everything to be black and white, but have pictures and paintings around the room of different places around the world to add color. [I have pictures of the eiffel tower all lit up, big ben .. etc.] I was originally going to paint my room white, then splatter paint it with black, but I am having second thoughts. any ideas of what to use the black paint for?? [ i wont make one wall black..that would be too dark for me]
i have a black and white bed, black and white bookshelf, and a black and white desk... if that helps






Answer :
do stripes of black and white, not thin stripes, but thick stripes. paint all walls either white or black (i recommend white) and that will be the background. Then use painters tape and make vertical stripes down the wall, making sure they are straight and evenly spaced for however thick you want your lines (ex. 1 foot and be sure to take into account the width of the tape.) It may be a bit of work, but it creates a cool effect. You can get painting advice from the Home Depot if you are having any troubles.






Answer :
I think you should have a black ceiling and either do trim or other random furniture or decorations in your room black (I can imagine a black corner desk in the corner of the room). When you mentioned the Eiffel Tower all lit up it gave me an idea to use twinkly little lights around the room. Kind of like christmas lights






Answer :
I do not think you should splatter paint it because it would make it really busy and difficult to decorate. But I do think you could paint your walls white and either paint your floorboards and window/door borders black OR do a ceiling trim with black and maybe even do a cute little design like paisley, swirls, or a dripping effect.

Another thing I could suggest is doing a little cityscape border at the bottom of your walls in black, it would go with the city paintings and add in the black you want! Hope this helps!






Answer :
my room is decorated with black and white and my walls are blue and it looks amazing.
