Black, White, and Yellow

Spring inspiration doesn't have to come in pastel colors.   I'm most inspired by the crisp clean contrast of black and white and I'm mixing it up for a spring combo.  
 
This china is of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew.


Eddie Ross is just announcing the launch of Celerie Kemble's new book Black & White (and a bit in between).  He posted some great images from the book.  Some pics are even Eddie and Jaithan's own home.

Are these images some beautiful black & white eye candy?

  2. Sherry this is one of the most brilliant & elegant table setting ever! I am surprised as I am not a fan of either color but you sure sold me on this now that I've seen it. Awesome.

  15. Oh yes, they're beautiful! That's one of my favorite color combos. I have it in my kitchen now. At the moment, I'm accenting it with red, but it's so versatile that I can change the little pop of color, and I give it a whole new look. LOVE it.
