Carole King of Dear Designer's blog wrote yesterday about her love of black lace and it pinged into my twitter feed just as I was compiling pictures of the same subject from around my home. Four of our rooms feature lace in decoration and all of it is black. We might be more goth than frilly in our house..
In a sunny recess you may get the double whammy of reflected lacey shadow. So its at a window in Rachel's bedroom, at the front door,
and a black lace curtain surrounds a bath
and there is a black lace stencil pattern on the walls. The last one is in our studio, but still counts. The lace stencil is VN124.
Is this a trend alert? If Carol is featuring it then it may be so, she shares a couple of scrumptious pics of lace panels from silk supremo James Hare

What about you? Black lace in decoration.. a yes or a no?
Helen
Its a yes from me.

I like the unexpected twist of the black. I am not much on "frilly" and this gives a different interpretation. Black is back!
