When it comes to home design, introducing black and white decor can provide your living space with that extra "oomph" and wow factor! Ditch the big box stores and buy beautifully-crafted decor with history and personality. Pink Pig offers vintage classics with a modern twist from rustic, scented candles to charming, printed throws, and kitchen decor that will give your home character.
Why Black and White?
Think of black and white as versatile, as it's a look that can lend itself to a wide variety of aesthetics. It can serve drama, freshness, timelessness, eccentricity, and that much-needed personal touch to your home. It can also provide a fresh contrast when paired with bold pops of color, glass, marble, or wood. Here are a few suggestions for incorporating black and white into your home.
Kitchenware
Incorporating black and white into your kitchen can give it a clean, sleek appearance. This can be accomplished using fun, quirky accessories, or beautiful, classic pieces that will give the room an air of elegance.
